safest way is to get a building jack and use it to support the beam. Knock out the old support and pour a footing where the old one was. Make it 20"x20" and deep enough below frost line for your area. Cure over night and add a column, steel filled with concrete would work the best. Make sure to get the plates for anchoring it to beam and concrete.Make sure it is plum before anchoring. Let off on jack easy. Remember supports are never too big.
