Twelve years ago, my daughter tried to bake a loaf of real sourdough bread. After trying for a while she gave up and challenged me to try, "No one can bake real sourdough bread, mom, not even you. " That was the beginning of my sourdough journey.

For general maintenance, I pour out most of the starter, leaving about 30 - 50 grams and then feed at 100% hydration. I will feed anywhere from 60 - 100 grams each of all purpose flour and water. If I am preparing to bake, I feed the amount necessary for the bake and to have some left over for re-feeding.

Then add 80 grams of flour. Mix all ingredients together and let it ferment for at least 6 hours before using. This is just for maintaining your starter. If you need more starter for your formula, then save more of the starter and add more flour and water to feed it.
