Hi Will! To obtain a larger amount of active starter for a recipe you can weigh the amount of starter you have and then feed it equal amounts of flour and water. This should ensure that you have enough to use in your recipe but also some to continue on maintaining a starter. We do have a blog article on Maintaining a smaller starter that you might find helpful if you'd like to feed the starter less when you are just doing maintenance feedings. Happy baking! Morgan@KAF
