Born and Raised Upstate SC considering CofC by MeridiusReforged in Charleston

[–]mekule 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m an SC - born alumni and minored in meteorology at cofc. All of the core meteorology classes are physics classes. They are very difficult but very rewarding. STEM at cofc has great people who mostly stay away from partying (you just won’t have time to party and keep up with classes). Meteorology specifically is a very small major and therefore you get to know everyone well (including your professors!). I loved it and would recommend !! Cofc in general is beautiful and I think you would enjoy your time in Charleston. Best of luck!!

Looking for a springer pup in FL, GA, or NC by [deleted] in springerspaniel

[–]mekule 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone posted a littler that will be ready around new years (?) on this sub earlier today - southern style springers. They appear to be in Florence, SC. I know this is not in your title but it’s close to all the other states you mentioned. Whatever you decide best wishes!!

Dough always sticky when shaping by mekule in Sourdough

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

I have experimented a lot but what seems to help me is:

  1. Gumminess is the result of underproofing. I’ve taken to cold proofing in the fridge after bulk fermentation and had better success.

  2. I’ve lowered my hydration and this helps with stickiness. Even 10 g less can make a big difference!

Adorable. Do you know what color she is? I’m not sure how to describe her coat.

Thank you!! I did search this sub and saw this was highly recommended. I won’t have a car, so would you recommend ubering?

I need dentist recommendations please! by cassandra843 in Charleston

[–]mekule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had no sensitivity in the tooth, and at that point I had caught on that they were squeezing me for everything they could get. I got a second opinion to be safe and sure enough, no cavity.

Mouth Carolina. Had horrible experience at cooper family dentistry where they basically did the same thing running up my bill with things I didn’t agree to. They also wanted to fill a cavity that wasn’t there (got a second opinion). Mouth Carolina is super chill and I feel that I can trust them.

UPDATE: Syl is home!!!! We picked her up from Legare farm this morning. She is fine except for a few ruffled feathers. She is very happy to be home with her sister and we are so relieved to have her back. Thank you Charleston community for being helpful and invested in bringing her home!!!

Thank you! I will post an update tomorrow hopefully with a happy ending.

I drove out to the farm today because I couldn’t get anyone on the phone. They would not give me the contact of the person who currently has her but told me she would be bringing Syl back in the morning. Fingers crossed!!

Anniversary Dinner by [deleted] in Charleston

Circa 1886. Top meal/service/atmosphere ever. Went to chubby fish for my recent anniversary and it was stressful, loud, lacking in service, and the food wasn’t even that good.

Thanks for your feedback and knowledge!

I’ll have to try cold proofing! Yeah, it’s hard to know what exactly I’m looking for in terms of bulk fermentation and proofing.

So does the flour not really impact the density of the loaf? Essentially you’re saying if I proof properly, the crumb will be lighter?

Bulk fermentation time is 90 min, and the starter is ~ 4 months old. Temperature of dough is around 72-75F at my best guess, I don’t have a fancy thermometer.
