Start by putting 100 grams of rye flour and 150 grams of water in a glass container.
Mix thoroughly so all the flour is hydrated.
Put somewhere warm the next day (in a window in the sun or near a heater)
Then follow the routine beneath until you have an active sourdough starter. You know it is active when it grows to at least double size over four to eight hours after the feeding.
Daily feedings
Mix the sourdough starter
Measure out 50 grams of sourdough starter in a fresh, clean glass container
The leftover sourdough starter should be thrown out; at this point, it may contain bacteria that you don't want to eat.
Add 100 grams of bread flour and 100 grams of water and mix thoroughly. Close the container. You can seal it if you want. Store somewhere warm (about 25°C/77°F)
Repeat every day until your sourdough starter is bubbly and grows predictably. Normally it takes six to seven days

Notes
Every day when you are about to feed the starter, you might see a brownish liquid on the top of it. Just stir it back in.
The starter should smell sour, it doesn't mean it has gone bad.
Any mold or mildew on top of the starter means it has gone bad. There is no way to save it.
