What is good feeding? I believe that there are two important things:
First, don't starve the culture. This means that you should feed the culture once it shows evidence of strong activity (frothing or rising depending on the thickness of the starter) and not too long after that. If you feed too infrequently the cell populations in the starter will begin to decline due to starvation, etc.
Second, feed the starter by quadrupling (or even quintupling). This means that you feed the starter three times it's weight each time you feed it (i.e., if you have 2 oz of starter, feed it 6 oz of new food). If you don't have a scale you can do the measurements by volume, but I think weight is better. I also think that it is best to keep the starter at a relatively thick consistency. Both the dilution at feeding and the thick consistency are designed to encourage the presence of certain good lactibacilli. FYI, when one feeds by such extreme dilution, it is not necessary to maintain a partiularly large amount. Starting with a tablespoon of old starter and mixing this with a quarter cup each of flour/water at each feeding will leave you with a sufficient amount of starter.

关于baking stone,Jamie Oliver 曾经推荐过用 granite 石板烤pizza. 网上卖的pizza stone都太小。我回家 ...
