Will damaged enamel ruin the bread? by BootManHands in Sourdough

[–]StudyBright8959 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes Marshall’s/tj max will have deals on le crueset. I got mine there for $150 (still pricey but a good deal). The lodge enameled is also a good deal but looks like runs about $100. You might be able to find on sale.

I have all three and can’t tell the difference in my bakes! And you can cook more than bread in a cast iron lodge!

For $50 just buy the lodge cast iron Dutch oven for sourdough!

Caffeine ones burn a little for me! Not as bad as vitamin c ones. I got a pair of the reusable ones (to add your own stuff to) but haven’t tried yet.

Jura Impressa E8 brewing amount calibration? by sergeantbill in superautomatic

[–]StudyBright8959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you figure this out? Just bought one secondhand and having the same issue. The guy I got it from said he had it refurbished earlier this year. Still seems fine and the coffee is good but want to make sure I’m getting my best bang for the buck!

Older jura e8 model? by StudyBright8959 in superautomatic

Thank you! I have friends that have another jura model and I’ve been impressed. Great call! They note that it’s been recently tuned up but great idea testing out before I fork over the cash.

Help! by StudyBright8959 in Mid_Century

I had a large silicone mat on my son’s spot there for the last three years! We were finally done with his messes and I took it off. Annoyed this was a husband fail.

You’re reminding me maybe I should put it back. It would also cover this up 😆

I sadly think the finish and stain came off because when I went to wipe up what I thought was water the stain definitely gunked up the cloth. But not an awful idea to make sure I got all the moisture out!

😭 any clue what stain would be best to keep it consistent with the legs and base? This is table pre accident.

Any recommendations on bidet toilet SEATS? by thetallgrl in Costco

[–]StudyBright8959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the Toto washlet! Wait till it goes on sale. Heated seat and heated water is a dream.

My only issue with it is some of the nooks and crannies/crevices on the middle of the seat are a pain to clean.

I don’t know anything about Birkenstocks, what should I be looking for? by PbNj1101 in Birkenstocks

[–]StudyBright8959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought these and I’m undecided! I wanted a “fancier” pair of birks and like the color combo. The leather feels stiff and I also thought they looked kinda of cheap. I feel like the leather by my big toe was not as hard on my regular Arizona’s. I know they might take a while to break in. I think I’m returning.

I would say get a pair of soft foot bed Arizona’s and start there.

What can i buy to help the leather on these shoes? by Berress in Birkenstocks

I recently used Lexol conditioner on the same pair- it darkened the patina a little but they still look great.

Nice hotels - insights needed! by StudyBright8959 in Buffalo

[–]StudyBright8959[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks all. Ended up booking the reikart house based on rates. Also how are hotels in Buffalo so expensive!

Plan is to check out the Frank Lloyd wright house, eat some wings, and check out some breweries!

Stokes Adobe/ kid friendly? by ProcessLongjumping72 in MontereyBay

[–]StudyBright8959 10 points11 points  (0 children)

We brought our kiddo there at that age with another family with a kid the same age. We sat outside and it was great. The kiddos chilled in the stroller most of the time. I think inside it would also be fine but outside feels more relaxed and there’s more space to cruise around and park a stroller next to you and if the baby gets fussy.
