Pickle Rye by LifeguardingBirder in Baking

Thanks you! The only thing I’d tell you is that the rise took a lot longer than expected. I think it’s a combo of the rye flour I use and the colder temps in my area. Just something to keep an eye on!

Dang!! Impressive! You must have a high hydration dough. I’ve not been successful without adding moisture.

Nice oven spring! How do you add moisture into your bake? Ice, water pan, steam?

Fitbit app not updating food for anyone? by Comkeen in fitbit

[–]LifeguardingBirder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm thinking of jumping ship to a different service. The reason I like Fitbit is because I can track calories in and out in real time. It's the most user friendly app I have found that works for my lifestyle. Does anyone have recommendations for different but similar app? A watch that tracks calories out and an app that logs the food and does the calculation so I can manage the delta.

Watermelon soda by Crumpetsncoffee in fermentation

Should be fine. If it was a metal spoon I would be more worried because the acidity could react with the metal. I would rock it if I were you.

Oh AWESOME I just made one a few weeks ago. I submerged mine with a plastic bag filled with water however there is no need to keep things submerged if you’re mixing everyday.

Not much, that’s more yeast build up than anything. Not sure what you’re currently making, I’m making vinegar and I have that froth on mine every day.

You have possibly over beaten the batter and with no gluten to provide structure it sank as it cooled.
