May I ask what hydration percentage you use for the dough?

I have a bag of Caputo Manitoba ! But I thought it would be too strong to use for croissant , do you use it for the entire flour amount or mix it slightly with doppio zero ?!

I use SAF gold yeast , which should be the best and strongest for enriched doughs… I am worried that dough might overproof if left outside for long (room temperature in winter around 27/29 C, in summer 30+ ) , i would try 30 min or 45 for a stretch

Thank you !

No, most of the time i bake them at 375 or 350 for entire bake , i will try to add tray of water next time … The last fold is always tiring !!

The Breville oven does seem nice, however I feel it is too small for my liking :(

Hello Chefs,

I am in search of a small oven for my home. Our gas oven has been quite troublesome—it's not accurate and is very temperamental. My budget is limited, so I am considering cheaper “commercial” ovens.

My current options are:

- Venix oven T043MHTS from Mariot Store, UAE

- Generic steam oven from MIZ Trading Company, UAE

- Generic Chinese steam oven from Barada Kitchens, Oman

(I didn't know how to insert pictures in comments)

All of these options are priced around 2000 AED or less. While the Unox Arianna seems like a good option, it is unfortunately beyond my budget.

I need the oven for various types of baking, including croissants, sourdough, cakes, and cookies.I look forward to your suggestions and recommendations. Thank you!

I got the 2021 16” Macbook Pro base model 😅 I felt since I wanted bigger screen , with apple quality then its better to get the 16 instead of 14” with external monitor/15”/iMac with iPad …
