In this case, I suspect it means roughly 1/2 ounce (brick) of compressed
yeast. You can substitute a couple teaspoons of dry active yeast proofed in
the milk.
You could also use water rather than milk and leave the starter sitting on
the counter for a couple of days, but the results may be uneven. One of
times I tried this, the starter started blowing CO2 like a mudpot in
Yellowstone, another time, I got nothing.
If you feel experimental, when you make a batch of the bread, replace the
liqour in the main recipe with a couple of cups of warmed cottage cheese and
add a tablespoon of dill seed, which will give you a version of German
Dillbrot.
