That's a really good question. It's definitely possible to make your own culture, but it's a lot more difficult than sourdough. Barry recommends The Book of Tempeh by William Shurtleff for more information about this, but the fact that he still buys his culture fresh each time is an indication that, to me at least, it's not worth it to make my own.
Thanks you for the directions, I have been toying with the idea for quite some time now.
Is there a way to make this a continous process like e.g. sourdough or does one need new, fresh spores every time?
Thanks Charlotte
