Bread Starter

 I follow want you are saying to do in bullet point number one. Lukewarm water is what temperature? After stirring in the TBS bread flour what temperature do we want to keep it at. 80 to 85 degrees? As you feed and build up your starter during the first 7 days are we discarding some of the starter as you go? About how may days before I will be able to bake using this starter Please forgive all the questions. I'm relatively new to baking and don't want to kill your starter culture.Its a memory of mine from Bayern.Sincerely,Jim
