Hi Brent,

When I want to store my starter(s) for a while, I just mix
'em up super stiff (that is, lots of flour kneaded in) until
they are rather like firm clay.

I then seal the lump of starter in a small screwtop plastic
jar and put it in the fridge. It is happy in that condition
for several months and then on feeding comes back to life
very quickly.

All the best,
