// WHY_LEARN_THIS?

To eat the best toast of your life. And feel like a frontier homesteader.

The Experiment: I asked ChatGPT to design a strict 24-hour crash course to learn Sourdough Bread. I stripped away the fluff. This is the raw data on how to go from Zero to Glitch in one day.

// THE_FIRST_HOUR

Most people quit in the first 45 minutes. Here is the exact starting instruction to survive:

"Mix flour and water. That's it. Start the culture."

// THE_AI_PROMPT

"Act as a world-class expert in Sourdough Bread. Create a strict, hour-by-hour schedule for a complete beginner to learn the basics in exactly 24 hours. Focus on practical application over theory. My constraint is Flour + Water + Patience."

// THE_SCHEDULE

Timeframe Module Objective
Hour 0-2
Setup
Foundation & Mechanics Mix flour and water. That's it. Start the culture.
Hour 2-6
The Grind
Prep & Mise en place Chop, measure, and organize. Chaos is the enemy.
Hour 6-12
Application
Heat Control First execution. Don't burn the house down.
Hour 12-18
Debug
Troubleshooting Pitfall Avoidance: Killing the yeast with hot water. Ideally 80°F/26°C.
Hour 18-24
Mastery
The Final Project Execute: Name your starter 'Yeasty McYeastface'
⚠️ HUMAN WARNING
Killing the yeast with hot water. Ideally 80°F/26°C.
💡 PRO TIP
The 'Float Test': Drop a spoon of starter in water. If it floats

// THE_GLITCH_TASK

To prove completion, I must execute this specific anomaly:

"Name your starter 'Yeasty McYeastface'"

// CONCLUSION

Can AI teach Sourdough Bread? It provided the map, but the Killing the yeast with hot water. Ideally 80°F/26°C. was a real human struggle. The result? Learned enough to be dangerous.
