Make the starter the night before by mixing together with your fingers:

1 cup (4 ¼ ounces) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour (or ¾ cup all-purpose flour + ¼ cup whole wheat flour)
3/4 cup (6 ounces) room-temperature water
1 pinch yeast

Cover and let sit at room temperature overnight.

If you need to speed this up, let it sit in the oven with the oven light on for about 6 to 7 hours, and it should be ready to use.
