Master biga for pizza - what nobody tells you!

Making biga for pizza is very easy. But you need to have some guidance and you need to respect some simple rules.
In this video I am showing how you can prepare a classic biga that you can use for pizza or for bread.
Stndard biga ingredients are:
Flour and then 44% hydration and 1% yeast.
For example:
1000 grams flour
440 grams of water
10 grams of fresh yeast.
Remember that to prepare classic biga you need the right flour!!

My second question is, refrement yeast is added while making the dough. So in this case how much poolish should i add while making the dough?
