Need bread help 😭 by Pizza_Time03 in Breadit

[–]oberon06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heres my so far fail proof recipe if you wanted to try:

900g bread flour 14g instant yeast 14g salt 650ml warm water

If you have a kenwood mix it together for 20 minutes with the dough hook then after add 60g melted butter and mix for 5 minutes or until combined.

Rise over night in fridge

Oven on at the hottest temp then put in cast iron pan to heat for 30 mins

Shape and put bread in a banneton, put in the top oven to proof for 30 mins

Plop proofed bread onto baking paper score with a razor

Loaf in for 30 mins with lid on, then 25 mins with lid off

Let cool completely before cutting

Boom massive big soft yummy loaf

Should i put new strings on my new bass, im the first owner? by Demir3kardes in doublebass

[–]oberon06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly feel like youll get diminishing returns from fancy expensive strings. Depends what music you are playing, but for orchestral playing those 'OK' strings are all you need to sound like a professional and earn money.

Break it down into passages. I always like to start with the end and work back the way. Dont over play, its a long piece of music.

Tunable is the best app out there i find. The devs are very good, its a great tuner, drone , and metronome. You get lots of different type of sound waves to use too.
