Hi Lisa, I would recommend feeding some of your discard with the 50/50 feeding routine. Although it can take up to 10 days for a starter to fully convert and stabilize to a new food source, I suspect feeding this starter for a few days of twice daily feedings will do the trick in this case. If you end up making these recipes regularly, it might be worthwhile to keep this second starter going, rather than changing your main starter's feeding routine periodically.
