Is the yeast missing in these instructions, or is it not necessary? Color me confused! :-)
There's no added yeast in this starter; leavening comes from the wild yeast that's in flour, and in your surrounding environment. It's true, some starters begin with added yeast; not this one. It takes longer to get going, but if you follow the instructions you should end up with a very strong, active starter. Good luck! PJH
