There certainly are less dish-intensive processes you can take in your sourdough feeding. My favorite way to do this is to zero out the scale with 339g of sourdough starter on it. Then, remove 226g of sourdough starter and placing it in a discardso that the scale reads "-226g". This way, you know that the remaining amount in the starter is 113g. Then, you can feed this remainder with 113g of water and flour. As long as you scrape down the sides of the container, you don't need to wash the container the starter is in each time. Still, I would recommend removing the starter and washing the container at least once a month. I hope this helps!
