Appreciation post: my sourdough starter went completely flat after a weekend away. It was bubbling fine on Friday.

Ugh, I read that a sudden temp drop can totally deflate them.

My starter did the same thing last month after a cold snap, and it bounced right back with two feeds. I actually disagree with the idea that a temperature change is always the problem, like avery_flores mentioned. Sometimes the yeast just gets lazy and needs a good stir and some fresh flour to wake back up.

Check if you left it near a drafty window. I mean, my kitchen gets weirdly cold spots that mess with mine, idk. Maybe it's just a simple fix like moving the jar.
