*I'd sift the dry ingredients together first, but the original sheet doesn't say to.

This sounds like an excellent recipe. I assume this is for a lower or midwest altitude. I live in the mile high altitude is there adjustments needed for the altitude difference. Thanks.

I am happy to find a recipe for a 'starter'. Is there anyway you can have a starter, and when it is the day to make your bread, to only end up with enough starter for you to make more next time? I don't have any friends that ever want the extra and I hate wasting, and throwing it out.

Also, when I make this, I use a large ziplock to hold all the contents. I squish the bag, daily, instead of mixing, and I open it to let the air out, each day as well.
