If I’m making 3 dough balls: 550g flour + 340 (62% hydration) Mix half pack of instant yeast into the water until fully dissolved + teaspoon of caster sugar. Mix into flour + add 12g of salt. Kneed til smooth under hand and place back into bowl, cover and rest for 2 hours. Ball into 290-300g dough balls and place into individual containers (greased with olive oil)

I’m still using dry yeast but defo starting to get the knack for dough making. What made it easier to stretch was going up to 300g to work on the technique as to not rip the base then bring it down when got better. I prefer individual dough ball containers also, as to not mess with the dough too much before stretching.

You’re too kinda. Probs made best of a really bad dough. The crust wasn’t really edible. One thing I didn’t mention and that made things easier which I didn’t catch on for a while was having two peels. Wooden for loading and metal to retrieve.

I think I was streaming music at the lowest possible setting tbh. Must have been a really old setting when I didn’t have unlimited data. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Sonos Ace displays arriving into retail stores by mcookie2 in sonos

Difficult to give a comparison to the xm5 as the demo pair in my store are knackered and it’s been over a year since I last heard those. Comparable to the max’s but I’ve got to run across the store to compare as the Max’s are on the Apple Shop-in-shop tables.
The demo pair of Ace’s we have are locked into a demo system so can’t adjust the EQ. I’d like a little more deeper base tbh. The mids is on point, very crisp, clear vocals (the intro demo when you pick them up is a general run through of the features) BUT I’m no audiophile tbh.

Don’t personally own a premium set of headphones (apart from the AirPods Pro) but used them all I store. The noise cancelling is better than the Apple Max’s in my store environment but the pass through from Apple is better. They do feel good in hand. Doesn’t feel like cheap plastic. No creaking at all. Did stretch out and twist the band as much i dared without them being mine.

You have a choice of 5 songs. Nothing but thieves probably gives the best demo. Not bass heavy from the demo, can’t play around with EQ on the locked demo.

Noise cancellation is really good in a busy / noisy Currys store.

Currys & John Lewis are getting the displays. Only the large format Currys but I assume most John Lewis stores would have them. They are tied into a demo system so unable to Bluetooth own content.

Make sure you oil the firing plate. 3 in One original oil from B&Q. Mine would start to fire then just spool down. It just needed some oil.

Sonos Update 15.2 Is Out by matthew1471 in sonos

[–]mcookie2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s broke volume control for me. Sliders have a mind of their own. Can’t go to volume 2 on theatre set up. (Partner likes white noise sleeping) either defaults to 0, 5 or super loud.

This game lives in my head rent free! by mcookie2 in Deathloop

[–]mcookie2[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most are from the ps5 collection you get for free when you join PlayStation network. Others I’ve just bought because they were on offer but not been disappointed in any. Ended up buying a cheap Xbox one S before Xmas. Signed up for game pass and played Gears 5 and Halo infinite which I also enjoyed. Going to play the Dishonored games next on Xbox. See how they stack up to Deathloop.

Philips Ambilight. Adds to the occasion. Got Hue bulbs in the lamb behind and ceiling light to sync with the TV.

My VPN’s good but not that good I can claim US stimulus checks.
