You only need about a cup to keep things going, and it's going to want to be fed a lot the first couple of weeks, so you'll have more starter than you really can work with if you keep it all.

It's picky about that. But make pizza or focaccia with the dough you have, and try again. If you're not ready to bake yet, put the dough in the fridge and deal with it tomorrow.

I have bubbles! I did things a bit differently, though - stirred twice a day and fed it yesterday morning and again today (when I saw tons of bubbles.) Will take out my cup of starter, feed again and then refrigerate the rest later tonight... I have bubbles! I have bubbles!

It's frustrating at first: nothing happens, and more nothing, then finally you see bubbles. I checked <em>Classic Sourdoughs</em> again, and it recommends stirring twice a day, and feeding it as soon as bubbles start to form. I think mine took most of a week.

How long does it typically take before it'll start bubbling? Just mixed up my starter; will see what happens over time. How long does it typically take before it’ll start bubbling?
