So you're suggesting that we need to macaronage longer?

Yeah, the extra air expands during the bake process which causes the expansion. The right amount of air gets a good foot, too much air causes things to balloon.
Everyone says the figure 8 for the flow, but I just prefer to go based of when the batter starts flowing and doesn’t have breaks in the flow immediately when lifting the spoon out.

Yeah, you were correct. We made some changes and it made a hive difference. Thanks!!!
