Prep School: Homemade Yeast & Sourdough Starter

Ash Bauer

Welcome to Prep School!

Harvesting wild yeast is almost criminally simple. This lesson of prep school teaches you how to harvest yeast usable for bread or beer from nearly any fruit. As a bonus, it also teaches you how to make sourdough starters from either wheat or potatoes. Whether you use your own fruit yeast or a sourdough starter, your breads will have a wonderful, unique aroma guaranteed to impress your your friends.

It’s easy to be intimidated by a hardcore prepper with 30 years of food stores, multiple bug-out locations, and an off-the-grid power system. Prep School exists to let you in on three big prepping secrets.

SECRET ONE: Nobody starts perfect.
SECRET TWO: Prepping is fun.
SECRET THREE: Prepping isn’t just for The End Of The World As We Know It.

Prep School is for people who’ve been bit by the prepping bug but don’t know where to start. You’ll walk through introductory prepping lessons that won’t break the bank or scare your neighbors. Prepping doesn’t have to be a big, intimidating ordeal. Prep School teaches you how to be social, learn interesting new skills, and sleep easier at night knowing you’re ready for any crisis or disaster.

If you’re an advanced prepper who could use a quick refresher on a specific topic you can spend $1.49 on a single essay. There’s no need to waste your money or make you wade past information you could teach in search of the good stuff you need. If you’re just getting started, you can pick up individual books or save a little cash and pick up our $2.99 Theme Packs where we bundle related articles into a single book. Only buy what you need. Spend the rest on your preps.

Prep School: Homemade Yeast & Sourdough Starter brings you one step closer to full independence by teaching you how to harvest wild yeast for use in anything from beer to bread. Enjoy the same time honored techniques used by generations of families who settled the American west. In case of a crisis or disaster, the same electricity free, import free, easy techniques will be just as effective now as they were hundreds of years ago.
