Starter Question

Hi all,

I started my second attempt at getting a starter going last night. Following Alton Brown's recipe from Food X Mixing + Heat = Baking I used 1 cup organic rye flour, 2 cups water and 1 tsp sugar. I mixed it all up, put it in an unused Brita jug (uncovered) and put it in the cupboards.

 Here's the question. I looked at it this morning and most of the flour has settled on the bottom. Should I be mixing it each day or should I just let it go?

 

Thanks!

Jeff
