Debbie, the overnight starter really shouldn't be stretched much longer than the 14 hours at room temperature, as it will over-ferment. If you know ahead of time that you won't get to it within that time frame, one option would be to allow it to ferment more slowly in the fridge. Otherwise, we'd really suggest sticking with the timeline outlined in the recipe. Mollie@KAF
