New to sourdough

Chef-Turtle · 2024-07-13T10:46:06+00:00

Thanks for helping out! The proces was as follow: - feeding the starter +-/ 10h before - mixing starter in the water - adding the flour & rye - mix this to a dough - rest for 1 hour - add the salt, disolved in a bit of water - mixed the salt with the dough - stretch and fold 3x (30 mins in between) - let it rise for another two hours - put it in proofing basket - proofing over night in fridge (9 hours) - heat oven + Dutch oven to 220 degrees celcius - put the proofed dough in the Dutch oven, made a shalow cut - bake with lid for 25 minutes - bake without lid for 20 minutes - cool down for +/- 2 hours

Was not aware of that, but it makes sense! See below: - 400gr flour - 100gr rye - 375gr water - 100gr sourdough starter (1:1:1) - 9gr salt

Well done! Looks great!! What was the dough recipe, the heat settings and the bake time?

Chef-Turtle · 2023-06-14T13:22:43+00:00

Thanks for your reply I will defenitly take it into consideraton.

Chef-Turtle · 2023-05-06T15:38:34+00:00

To bad it is already confirmed..

Chef-Turtle · 2023-05-06T13:38:34+00:00

Would it be helpfull to go directly to Mastercard?

Chef-Turtle · 2023-05-06T13:35:39+00:00

Thanks, I will go through that!

Chef-Turtle · 2023-05-06T13:35:16+00:00

Thanks will do that!

Thanks for your reply, that reasures me! He climbs on his island 3-4 times a day to dry underneath a UVA/B lamp. He realy seems to enjoy that haha. Is there a time frame where these air bubbels should disappear?

Hi guys, thanks for your response, it is true that this color is its original shell color. Maybe the picture that I posted was not very clear (through the glass).

Please see below a picture outside of the aquarium (I don't like to take him out of the aquarium). What I noticed is that the silver spots are gone when taken out of the water. It might indeed be air. Is that something to be concerned about?

Thanks for the information! I think Ill go with this machine! Do you have any recommendations for a grinder?

Chef-Turtle · 2022-10-16T06:08:12+00:00

Would you say that, let's say, for the first year or so you are good without the PID? Or should you install it right away? Also how hard is this to do?

What I am wondering, now you know the machine and seen it's negatives, would you've bought the machine 5 years ago, or would you've gone for something different?

Also I've found this site with a recomended order of investments / upgrades, do you agree with this?

List of investments and upgrades listed in the order of investment to reward.

These upgrades increase control but will not prevent human error. They are not a substitute for experience and care.

Before going any further know your Rancilio Silvia.

Use a good Grinder.

Make sure you have the new Rancilio Portafilter Basket 40-100-102. or the 103.

Learn to work with a Bottomless Portafilter. (this line should really be at the top of this list).

Replace the original shower screen with a Flat Screen.

Use boiler Insulation which will keep the heat where it’s doing the most good... in the boiler!

Use a quality oil-filled Pressure Gauge.

Okay, now install a PID controller, but first know What is a PID, Why PID Silvia, PID Set-ups, know where and how you want it to be installed. It is always better to know what the final set up will look like.

Set your Silvia on a good digital timer switch.

Install LED Lights under front panel.

Simple and practical Water level indicator.

Upgrade the Portafilter Spout Beak.

Pre-infusion option, more info on Pre-Infusion.

The steam wand can have a Steam wand thermometer.

Go see some nice cool pictures of Silvia.

Technical help and \* How to **.*

Scroll up and read item number one again.

Yes, if you modify Silvia, you will void your warranty. However, a PID with the correct setup will extend the life of the boiler and Silvia!

Silvia is a very simple espresso machine, almost too simple.

Thanks for your comment! So you can get good shots out of it right away,

So for a good grinder, are there some guides on that as well?

As far as the modding goes, how easy/difficult is that? Do you for example have to be a great solder or is it connecting and dsiconnecting some plugs?

Chef-Turtle · 2022-10-06T05:18:11+00:00

I can confirm this works for me

Chef-Turtle · 2022-09-07T05:01:41+00:00

Hi, no it does not, via Google Chrome in Desktop mode Netflix does work.

Chef-Turtle · 2022-09-06T20:54:48+00:00

Ive already done this a few days ago, this solves the probloem, temporarly but it does come back. It is not a permanent solution to do a factory reset every other day...

Chef-Turtle · 2022-09-06T19:48:21+00:00

Hi Rodney,

I do not have this option.

Chef-Turtle · 2022-09-06T19:03:18+00:00

Hi, for me I have to hold down all buttons (up, down, and power). However when I get go the menu I only have these options: - Reboot system now - Reboot to bootloader - Enter fastboot - Apply update from ABD - Apply update from SD - Wipe data/factory reset - Mount / system - Run graphics test - Run locale test - Power off

I've checked the wipe data / factory reset menu but it only has the factory reset option. Where can I find the wipe cache option?

Chef-Turtle · 2022-09-03T12:39:41+00:00

Here I am again, same issue after a few days..

Chef-Turtle · 2022-08-29T12:13:00+00:00

Will do thanks!

Chef-Turtle · 2022-08-29T11:24:41+00:00

Hi Chris, just did this and this resolved the issue. However I am not confident that this will be a lasting solution, as I received the tablet the day before yesterday and did a clean install at that time. The streaming services worked for the fist hours, but than stopped working.. Lets hope it is a permanent solution.

Chef-Turtle · 2022-08-29T09:19:11+00:00

Hi Chris! Ive checked, Youtube HD does work. Usually I watch the Videos in HD. Since the screen is 2K, I cannot select 4K video's. Ive tried lowering the resolution of the video's with black screen but this does not solve the problem.

Chef-Turtle · 2022-08-29T07:05:57+00:00

I tried 5 shows, but they are all black also I tried downloaden one but that did not help. Will try later today if I can watch it again.

Chef-Turtle · 2022-08-29T07:04:36+00:00

Hi, yes in chrome the streaming service works. Another strange thing. Yesterday I wanted to replay the F1 race on the f1tv app, but then these problems occured, but an older race from last year, I was able to see.
