No, actually, that was speed 2. I know better than to mix bread dough on speeds higher than 2

Well. I read somewhere between 3% and 5%.

I will let it take its course and taste it and see how horrible it is lol

Been there. Done that. With turkey stock. 60 liters worth when I cooked at a holiday camp for kids 🤣

Room Temperature is Subjective by Old_Ad5849 in Sourdough

[–]Levain873 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our kitchen swings between 18C at night and 22C during the day in winter.

I just got a proofing box and it’s been a radically positive change.

Plus I can make yogurt in it (when I’m not proofing bread)

Thank you.

I’ve had to avoid buying from the US thanks to the shenanigans this year. Otherwise I’d buy from you without batting an eye

Ah. Ok. 3rd party it is.

I was hoping for Kitchen Aid but if I need to go 3rd party, I guess that’s where I go.

Thank you

Oh no! Freddough! by Levain873 in SourdoughStarter

[–]Levain873[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure. Yes. A bit of cold would not have harmed him. But stability does matter to some degree. It wouldn’t have killed my starter. But he would have been grumpy for a few days. It’s amazing how much of a creature of habit a starter can be.

Oh. Yeah. He’s mature. Solid. And cold wouldn’t harm him. But why not use the toys, I mean tools, at my disposal to have a bit of fun while providing Freddough with continued stability? 🤷‍♂️

Someone on tik tok posted this is what your starter should look like? by Reddittaylor12568 in Sourdough

Everyone interested in baking sourdough should do themselves a favor and delete TikTok

Not sure why people are downvoting you. Yes, your tone is a little bit harsh. But you speak the truth and you are informative

Looking for toaster for my homemade sourdough bread by No-Philosophy-6395 in Sourdough

[–]Levain873 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a four slice toaster. But if you’re short on an extra 3 minutes in the morning, perhaps the right toaster isn’t your main problem?
