It is nice to know you are enjoying sourdough! Generally, for a standard size recipe, use only 1 cup of sourdough starter in place of one cup of flour and 1/2 cup of liquid in the recipe. If the starter is your discard (unfed) do not cut back on the yeast in the recipe. If your starter is fed, it is really your choice on what to do with the yeast. You can leave the amount as is or reduce it by half. You already understand the advantage to having some yeast present (faster rise). Enjoy the journey! Elisabeth@KAF
