The culture sould work fine. That media recipie is pretty good. If you want something eaiser, alot of people just use potato flakes, powdered sugar, and brewer's yeast.

Yea, you can add some more media to the dying culture, but don't go over board. The culture will go caput before all of the media you added is used.
