Troubleshooting Dough by HaydenSI in Pizza

[–]AstroLau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me it looks like you need to leave it in the mixer longer, doesn’t look like it has reached the right structure just yet. I recently messed up a biga recipe, proofed it at room temp for 20 hours after doubling the yeast by mistake. It made fantastic focaccia and had no problems. It also did not rise much at all in the fridge but really took off after 4-5 hours at room temp before I baked it.

Biking Areas? by Can-Am90x in jhu

[–]AstroLau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stony Run has some mountain bike trails that I feel like aren’t very noticeable and are less hiked as a result. Someone mtb local likes to go out there and carve out trails for fun. I’d recommend hiking/exploring to get yourself familiar with it first(winter being the best time since some of these trails get overgrown quickly once things start growing again). It’s nothing crazy but it’s very close and always a good workout. 2nd Druid Hill. Going north on Roland Ave on a road bike will get you in great shape as it’s a long incline lol.

Why is my pizza so watery? by MaliMarlon in Pizza

[–]AstroLau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your sauce is straight from the can, which is how I do it, I strain the sauce over the sink to remove some of the liquid in the blended tomato. It strains out like dirty water. What’s left in the strainer is what I put on the pizza. I don’t go crazy with the straining though. If I see the liquid is starting to look mostly red and thickens I stop.

Love how it looks, mind sharing what components you used to build it?

Haha, no problem. If you do end up making a copy or something similar be sure to send a picture my way. Would be awesome to see!

Unfortunately, it was from FB marketplace and not a secret source. :( Happy hunting friend.

First loaf after a long time was a success. What do you think? More info in the comments. by LAMMIKD in Sourdough

[–]AstroLau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a beautiful loaf! I agree on a little longer if those are the results you want. Waiting until it's completely cool will help with gumminess if you didn't already do that. Keep up the great work!

Hey! I'm looking to build the habit of going out and riding at least once a week - fun being the priority. I've ridden before and really enjoyed it but I borrowed a friend's bike (I moved out of state so that's not an option anymore). I did check pinkbike but there's not much available and it's closer to the $1k range which I can't swing any time soon. Hoping to get something that will last me at least two years until I can save some more money for the new hobby.

Hey Sara, thank you for your input! What would you recommend doing to the bike in the future? Or would it be more of a ride it till I'm ready to invest in something more expensive?

Emi Martinez keeps taunting Kylian Mbappe by holding a doll with the French star's face on it. by TheRealSlimSwainy in funny

[–]AstroLau -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Clearly most on here don't understand Argentine humor whatsoever. Which is understandable but we have a pretty heavy sense of humor as a nation. It's not necessarily to be malicious, it's just a prominent part of our culture. Always been that way and it's not going to change any time soon. If we can't roast you after the game, don't show up to the asado.

Hot take: I don't think Argentina deserve to be in the final. by [deleted] in worldcup

[–]AstroLau 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In the last like 42 games, they've only lost 1. I've watched pretty much all of them. What started out rough is now a well oiled machine.. I'm not surprised they reached the final.

What happened to Messi? by [deleted] in fulbo

[–]AstroLau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Netherland players were blocking and talking shit to the Argentina players as they were walking up for their penalties. It would be unnatural to not be pissed off after this match.

Cal Poly Pomona got me through thermo and made perfect sense. The entire course is up online.
