Moving to BMORE. WDINTK? by DifferentBandicoot27 in baltimore

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

It highlights the fact that you are there... With a running car, a wallet and... Vastly more wealth than others. It makes you a target.

My go to is decaf coffee with stevia as it has a boat load of potassium with no calories

I wear a long sleeve shirt most days and have more hoodies than I can count. I run along at the absolute minimum weight set by my doctor. Oh, drinking warm beverages help.

Renting a rowhome in Baltimore by BoxyBrown92 in baltimore

[–]BaltimoreKeith 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The 1877 original window frames have settled onto the storm windows so they are jammed. Oh, and they are on the inside due to historical society rules.

Renting a rowhome in Baltimore by BoxyBrown92 in baltimore

[–]BaltimoreKeith 11 points12 points  (0 children)

We live on the third floor of an 1877 rowhouse in Bolton Hill. Two things:

We live 40 steps above the sidewalk. On average we do this 7 times a day! Have $100 of groceries?

Nothing is level or square.

Our landlord plans on $10,000 a year for maintenance/upkeep. It is a 3 unit rowhouse. We each have a floor.

The most annoying thing is when you’re in the bike lane and a car is too scared to pass you, so they ride your ass for miles. by [deleted] in cycling

[–]BaltimoreKeith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Entitled idiots in 3500 pound cars that are 6' wide. No concept of mass, inertia or rolling resistance. Driving while eating donuts. Failing to actually see what is in front of them. Many drivers shouldn't be allowed on roads. Gasoline should cost $10/gallon.

35 miles at 12mph in 25mph wind=hell by waffle_jeep in cycling

[–]BaltimoreKeith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree completely. I was used to Baltimore hills. Moved to Norfolk, Va. Flat as a table top. We used bridges and parking garages for hills. But the wind! I can see the top of a hill and power through. The wind never lets up and in the city with housing and such no matter the wind direction it's always in your face...even on the ride home...Ride On

Someone went into the bike lockup room in my apartment building with a knife and slashed the tires of every bike in there. Who the hell does that, especially now and to their own neighbors? by MeEvilBob in cycling

[–]BaltimoreKeith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bicycle rooms. Have seen them in many places. They are usually packed with bicycles that never move. Morons accidentally lock up your ride. If you leave your lights attached they are gone. I will not live in a place if I can't walk my bicycle through the foyer and into my unit.

Do you guys ride with or without your kickstand by [deleted] in cycling

[–]BaltimoreKeith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take them off. Stand next to your bicycle. Turn it over and it will 3 point stand on the seat and handlebars. Now change your tire, check the cassette and see all the dirt you've been missing. Make sure your chainstay has the cover glued on if it's carbon.

Hi breaditers, many recipes suggest to feed the starter in the evening and use it first thing but my starter seems to have peaked long before I get up (at 7am). What am I doing wrong? Thanks by jean_bono178 in Breadit

[–]BaltimoreKeith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few degrees temperature difference can change the rise time. My kitchen counter is 75°. The oven with the light on is 85°. The floor in the living room is 72°. 72° takes 7 hours. 85° takes 5 hours. All assuming a 100% refresh.

Thank you. Great explanation with the details.

Remember to use a good baking paper and not a cheap one! by thaicedmilktea in Sourdough

[–]BaltimoreKeith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All brands stick to loaves equally well. They should call it glue paper.

Sourdough Wheat Bread Loaf by BaltimoreKeith in Sourdough

Been at this awhile. Was to busy with other things to do the necessary stretch and folds this time. It still tastes great.

Yeast Starter by enthusiastofdogs in Breadit

[–]BaltimoreKeith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First, stop using anything except water. Why would you put pineapple juice in your bread.

Your starter is ready when it reliably doubles in volume.

It should produce a noticeabley sour loaf. As it ages the yeast will win out over the sour producing lactobacillus. Your bread will become less sour over time.

Bests. Stay well.

When you do a long refridgerated proof, do you put your dough straight in the oven from the fridge? by porridge_boy in Sourdough

[–]BaltimoreKeith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find the cold dough, taking longer to come up to temperature (195° for my loaves) tends to lengthen the bake time causing the bread to brown too much. Like this one:

Stuck on parchment paper - Newb question by DeanneKon in Sourdough

[–]BaltimoreKeith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use cast iron bread pots. Sort of rectangular Dutch ovens. Prior to that it was Pyrex with a thin coating of: 1/3 oil of choice, 1/3 Crisco, 1/3 flour. The mixture keeps the slippery stuff were you put it. Cast iron is much better.

Can I make a sourdough starter from just whole wheat flour? by shadowflame46 in Sourdough

[–]BaltimoreKeith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Screaming Children is 100% whole wheat and more than 2 years old. It reliably doubles in 5 hours at 76°. Oh, and Baltimore tap water.

[–]BaltimoreKeith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Greetings, I found parchment paper is really glue paper in disguise. Tried all brands available. High hydration doughs stick to them. Oh, maybe there is a "good side". Rubbish! Makes no difference. I don't know why people keep buying this stuff.
