Wash and dry an organic apple
Chop the clean apple into small pieces and place in a clean jar and fill it with filtered water
Cover the jar with a cheesecloth or a loose-fitting lid to allow air to escape
Place the jar in a dark and warm place (~25-28C)
Shake the apple yeast water gently twice a day
After 3-5 days, you should notice bubbles forming, indicating that the yeast is active
Strain out the apple pieces and transfer the liquid to a clean container
Add equal amounts of the liquid and flour, mix well and set aside in a warm place, ideally 25-28C
The starter will double in 4-6 hours
The starter is now ready to be used to make bread
