It sounds like your sourdough starter is progressing exactly as it should. This might be a good point to switch to the unbleached all purpose flour as your regular feeding flour. You can always feed whole wheat flour to convert your starter if you need it for a recipe, but the all purpose works best for maintaining your starter. Yes, your calculations are correct. You want to discard all but 4oz of starter and feed 4oz of water and 4oz of flour. Please feel free to call our Baker's Hotline at 855-371-2253 if you have further questions about your starter. We love talking sourdough! Barb@KAF
