Not OP, but just a heads up to not get overwhelmed. Find the simplest instructions and start there.
Making a sourdough loaf is basically simple once you understand that you're growing yeast from the flour and activating it (starter).
Making the best sourdough loaf is complicated as fuck, and it's as much art/talent as it is science. This is where I suck at it.
But dont get bogged down with complicated hydration and shit at first -- just find a reliable starter recipe, grow it, and then bake a lop-sided, flatter than youd like but delicious loaf of bread.
