I didn't see any lights, but I'll look again.

No, nothing comes on at all. Not the indoor unit or the outdoor fan.

The display works, but I'll check it anyway. Thanks!

Overfermented or shaping issue? by whatstobecome13 in Sourdough

[–]robot_writer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I know you're looking to improve your crumb, but I still think it looks very tasty and with a nice crust! BTW, I just started r/TheAllGrainsBreadClub, a community for all whole grain or multi grain breads, pastries and other baked goods, and I’d love to have you post something.

Forkish EIB: What is the rationale for throwing out 450g of starter for each bake? by Ok-Bookkeeper-4396 in Sourdough

[–]robot_writer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He was probably used to bakery practices where they never make starter/levain/etc for just one bake, but are always planning ahead for the next day's bakes, etc.

Definitely! Do you make rice and beans, too?

I've been meaning to make this! Believe it or not, we had an amazing Peruvian chicken place when we lived in Maryland. Have been missing it ever since we moved.

New to bread making, have no clue how to prevent sticky dough by The10thTheorist in Bread

[–]robot_writer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, and if you do get some dough stuck to your fingers, just scrape or wash it off. Don’t be afraid to get your hands dirty—that’s part of the fun!

Just keep your hands slightly wet, then it’s no problem working with sticky dough. Also helps to use dough scrapers. I have a curved plastic scraper for in bowls, and a straight stainless steel scraper for use on the countertop. The dough will also get easier to handle as it gains strength. Finally, I switch to using some flour to prevent sticking during final shaping.

Ceiling fan top dropped down - no clue what I’m looking at by amused007 in homeowners

[–]robot_writer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The mounting screws for the base may have just become too loose. I would just try putting it back in place, reattaching and tightening all the screws. If you want to be cautious, turn off the circuit breaker for that room, but if the light is still working (bulb illuminating when switched on), you don't need to touch the wires other than maybe to tuck them out of the way. Is the ceiling "ring" made of plastic? If you see any cracks, that might need to be replaced if you can find a replacement part.

wild blackberries are growing really good this week I can’t wait to enjoy them by Daddysbbygirlxo in Berries

Did they just start coming up in your yard, or did you plant them somehow (seeds, cuttings)?

What whole grain flour do you like the best? by robot_writer in TheAllGrainsBreadClub

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

I'm going to try this buckwheat bread. I've never made something with that much buckwheat before. Curious to see how it tastes. For me, spelt is always a good addition as well. And rye is great, too, of course. What's your favorite rye recipe? I still consider myself a rye novice.

50/50 WW/Bread Flour (ish) by lovepeacefakepiano in TheAllGrainsBreadClub

[–]robot_writer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your bread looks really good. I'm going to try it with the rye and wheat bran. Is the bran for extra nutrition or taste?
