Wow, you guys have some amazing search-fu. I've made liquid starch from water and cornstarch, and just eyeballed how much water I needed. Mostly my starch came out much thinner than I wanted. Also, even keeping it in the fridge, it smells not so great (I left some out once, and it just got RANK). I'll try adding lemon next time. I'm imagining lemon juice may also inhibit mold growth in the starch.
