Great question! Here's what author PJ Hamel wrote when another curious reader asked the same thing: "I didn’t keep the three starters separate once they all got going; I combined them into one. But I can tell you from past experience that what you start your starter with quickly becomes a distant memory, taste-wise; within a couple of feedings any potential flavor from the “starter’s starter” has disappeared. PJH" I hope that helps! Kye@KAF
