Pastry Flour Starter

I used pastry flour back in the day for my starter and just went back to using it. It works great in the bread and with the lower gluten it is much easer to mix, refresh the levain, or to dissolve in water when I make bread. I am grinding it fresh now but I have bought it as flour also.
