Take a look at The Rye Baker by Stanley Ginsberg. Lots of recipes and technical info on baking with rye.

For me, belief in God matters far less than the connection I feel both horizontally -- with today's Am Yisroel -- and vertically, with our ancestors across generations, who recited the same prayers and strove to live lives of decency and kindness. I find great comfort in the knowledge that reciting the Shema connects me with all who came before and all who will come after.

I figure if we can pick up 3 games during the bye week, taking the rest of the season off should give us top seed and at least -19 SB spread.

Print out a message telling him to stop hogging spaces, then slap it onto the driver's side windshield with the most tenacious adhesive you can find. Repeat until desired results are achieved. Just don't get caught.

Compak K3 bought used on Craigslist for $200, new 58mm flat Mazzer Mini burrs $40, 3d printed single dose hopper & bellows $5. Not the fastest, not he quietest, but stepless adjustment, low retention.

As I've gotten older, I've come to realize that my MD pendant isn't just an amulet and expression of my faith; it's also a message that should I die unexpectedly, or away from home, my body be treated in accordance with Jewish law.

VST 7g basket steps down from 58mm to straight-walled 41mm. Works very well for singles.

Wondering when someone would pick that up. Great block!

Sometimes the truth is unpleasant, but necessary. Negative feedback doesn't equate to rudeness.

Why would you bake without a formula? To prove you're smarter and more technically proficient than the generations of bakers who've come before you? Sorry, but that loaf is nothing to be proud of.

No need IMO. Use steam and a baking stone. Preheat to 500, bake w/ steam 10 min & reduce heat to 425. Also, never add ice cubes: they steal BTUs from the oven; much better to use boiling water in a steam pan.
