Oh, jeez, as if all of this weren't overwhelming enough!

My head is spinning reading tutorials and flowcharts about starters!  Lol!  I have this question:  how much starter do you keep on hand and maintain?  I have quite a nice little starter that I captured and it is two weeks old.  I can't seem to make more than about 3/4 cu worth. 


Also - for my starter being so young and as yet untested, could I start saving my discards for wonderful uses?  How long can you keep discards?  Can they be frozen?


TIA
