Hi M, it sounds like you might need a larger jar, or perhaps you're not discarding with each feeding? In order for the starter to stay balanced, you want to be relatively consistent in your feeding practices and this generally requires discarding some of your starter each time you do a feeding. Our sourdough starter recipe should fit nicely in a quart-sized Mason jar or takeout container.
