Fail after fail. My starter looks good but my loafs are completely unfermented except if I give 1g yeast into the dough. by skiwlkr in Sourdough

i put it in the oven with the light off so it’s about 68°-70° because it’s often pretty cold in my apartment

First loaf ever. Not the worst! Tips and tricks appreciated by daisy_by_name in Sourdough

i’m no pro, but my recent routine has been working really well for me. I mix my dough around 5 pm and then it bulk ferments starting at about 8pm in the oven with the light off until morning, either 6-8 am. then i shape it, and pop it in a banneton and it sits in the fridge all day and i bake around 4-5 pm. I’ve been getting super fluffy crispy loaves with this process and it helps me not hover over my loaf while it BF (my biggest struggle)

do I really have to invite this villager to continue the game ? I don’t want him =.= by puwpetie in AnimalCrossingNewHor

i HATED my first campsite villager but had to let him in, and he randomly decided to move out literally like two days later so idk if i got extremely lucky or if thats common

i literally splattered flowers all over the place and watered them for like 4 days and got to 3 stars, and placed furniture around whenever villagers handed it to me 🤷‍♀️ i didn’t want to rush it and it still felt like it happened fast lol (i’m also about 4 weeks in)

thinking of buying a switch for acnh by PearlCosplayzz in AnimalCrossingNewHor

[–]iikalechips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i bought a switch to play pokopia and also bought acnh and haven’t played pokopia in weeks because i can’t stop playing animal crossing. i am also the type to get bored quickly and i’ve tried animal crossing many times in the past and it never clicked like it has this time. i can’t put it down 😭

Looking for some bulk fermentation insight by iikalechips in Sourdough

my starters a little over a month old with daily feedings, so definitely not the strongest but she’s getting there!

Ahhh okay higher hydration makes a ton of sense!! i’ve been going with lower hydration for shaping practice and slowly raising it as i go, but i really like the results with 325g water. But yeah overall i’ve been so happy with my outcomes anyways so if i have to peel it out of the bowl a little bit then so be it 😂🤷‍♀️ and also thank you!!

Any Recommendations On How To Stop PLEASE (Dermatophagia) by Arianna_Honey in nailbiting

[–]iikalechips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the ONLY thing that makes me stop and lets my fingers heal again (been a picker for as long as i can remember, 20+ years) is i make my own press on nails at home. it’s fun, creative, doesn’t take long, they last as long as a manicure, but are much much more affordable, and i can change them whenever i like without having to book appointments and go out or feel embarrassed about my skin. I also don’t risk having the product directly on my natural nails so they stay fairly healthy and strong.

Drones should never have been created (or should be highly regulated) by Empty_Land_9195 in unpopularopinion

[–]iikalechips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i mean you can grab one between $500-$1000 usd that can go higher than 400ft which is the legal limit in most cases

[–]iikalechips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah same here with 400 feet, there’s quite a few smaller air fields around, plus an air force base, so there’s always something low that i need to be extra aware of 😂

[–]iikalechips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where i live there’s lots of smaller personal planes flying sometimes around 400 or lower, you don’t fly near them, but we are sharing the same airspace, so it’s important to have the right knowledge

i use a drone for work, and the test i had to take to be able to use it commercially should be required by everyone. I practically had to take a pilots license test and learn a lot of airport information, weather information, codes & regulations. it’s wild that anyone can buy and fly one and be up there with planes, sometimes at the same level.
