    I enjoyed this course immensely. Sourdough bread baking simplified! Michele's step-by-step instructions were simple to follow and very easy to understand. I recommend this course to anyone who feels the least bit "sourdough intimidated". Michele removes all that!

    Easy to understand but all measurements are American. It would be very nice if you can add grams instead of cups + spoons measurements. Enjoyed.
