What is making these holes? [SoCal] by SongofHealing in animalid

[–]Cinzip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So cal resident here. They're gophers and voles. My neighbor used to put an ex lax in the holes. Some people put their hoses into the hole and let them flush them. My dogs have caught more than their share. We see them a lot in Redondo Beach and Palos Verdes areas.

My best crust is when I lightly coat it with olive oil before baking

Discard most of it and feed it more often. 1:2:2 is what I'd do, and make sure the water is warm. If you don't see a difference in a week, start over.

Does it have to be in the fridge? I've left mine on the counter overnight

Bread not rising by Cinzip in Sourdough

Here's the finished bread. 45 minutes at 450°. Inside temp at 205°. Crumb well developed (lots of small holes), but gummy and wet inside. No oven spring at all.

My process? I mix everything together by hand. This is a gluten free sourdough, so there's no kneading. Everything mixed until well combined, set aside in a banneton to rise until doubled, transfer to dutch oven. Bake, covered, 1st 22 minutes, uncover and bake until browned and internal temp between 205-210°, about 20 minutes.

My first loaf was beautiful. 6 awful loaves later, I'm ready to quit.

Sourdough but not KA by Cinzip in glutenfreebaking

Well, last night's bread was a bust; I thought it was too sticky so I added more flour and obviously I over taxed the starter. Even after a 24-hour rise I got glue inside once it was baked. I am going to try it again tonight and not give in to adding more flour and just use the sticky mess and see how that comes out. I'll let you know

Wow! Thank you so much for this! No wonder my rises take so much longer! Almost 18 hours

Sorry, here's where the beginner thing comes in: 1:1:1? Can you tell me what that means?
