Just wondering is there a simply rule of thumb for changing the hydration of a starter to suit a recipe. I want to make some the recipes in peter reinhart wholegrain breads but my starter is 100% hyrdration and he tends to use starter at around 60-70% hydration.

The recipes don't tend to have additional liquid, aside from that in the starter and the grain mash and so i am not sure how i would reduce the liquid without actually changing the hydration of the starter.Read more
