Pizza dough question

Options
i have been making my own dough when we have pizza on the weekends. Typically, I would buy dough at a local pizza shop if we want to have some during the week. I'd like to keep tinkering with my own dough and I'm wondering how early I can make it and have it sit on the counter or refrigerate.

    If you are using a starter, I usually shoot for 3 days ahead of time. So if I am making pizza on Saturday I would make the starter today, Wednesday, and let it sit for 18 or so hours. Then make the dough Thursday and do a bulk rise for 24 hours in the fridge. Then make dough balls Friday and put back in the fridge until you use them Saturday (or freeze ones you aren't using right away). You can keep in fridge for another day or two depending on your schedule. The slow cold rise does wonders for the flavor.
