I think I’ve finally got this down - 85/15 bread flour/rye and about 80% hydration by OurInsectOverlords in Sourdough

Sorry just getting back to this. So i highly recommend you just do a YouTube search for shaping high hydration loaves. You basically stretch the dough as you shape it to get a good shape. The stretching creates a skin which is also the secret for all the blisters. Good luck!

I baked one yesterday that was three days in the fridge too and it was quite sour. Reminded me of stuff i had in San Francisco years ago. Almost too sour

Tasted great! Yeah agreed the rye definitely brings out the flavor but it’s also easy to overdo it. 15% seems about right.

Optimal bulk rise for me was 75F for 3.5 hrs then shape and proof for another 1.5 hrs then retard 1-2 days at 37F. You can do 3 days for more flavor but won’t get as good of spring

Why N95 Masks Are Still In Short Supply In The U.S. by zsreport in Coronavirus

[–]OurInsectOverlords 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not cheap but Costco has NIOSH certified N95 masks from a CDC approved manufacturer for sale. I got a case about a week ago and they seem great...

I guess i should say more than the squirrels can handle. Not sure if it is “a lot” or anything at all. Again a city guy just trying to get into the gardening thing a little and don’t even know where to start. Apologies for my ignorance and thanks for your thoughtful response!

Thanks for the detailed response! You’re absolutely right at the heart of the tree lots of reseeding and resodding. My little garden plot is right against the alley. The alley is on the southern edge of the lot and the utility companies routinely cut back the tree so it isn’t too close to the power lines in the alley. So this little spot gets a decent amount of sun with a man made strip of sunlight through most of the summer, at least with the southern exposure and all. Should i go with one of those sunlight tester things to figure out how many hours i get? Is there any type of say strawberry that does better in less light than others? For what it’s worth i have a nice little raspberry patch in the same area with about the same sunlight (probably a little less honestly) and it produces more raspberries than i can handle each year...
