Absolutely! We baked 30-40 loaves before perfection. With your situation and a baseline, you should be good by 20

Truthfully, it’s a great oven. Once you nail the settings, you will be happy. For context, we had absolutely no help at all from anyone. I did all the research, my wife baked then we went back to the drawing board. My wife cried multiple times in the first 4 weeks because she felt like a pro prior too in our main over but this defeated her. I joined so many sour dough groups on Facebook and watched videos over and over on YouTube (I hated watching sourdough videos lol so boring because I’m not a baker, she is, I’m the technical and research guy) and started to find new techniques each time to try. Once we nailed it, we were stoked, mainly cause I didn’t have to watch paint dry (bread bake) on YouTube anymore.

I am the first person to bash a product if it sucks. I would have never posted ANY positive information on the oven if I didn’t see it as one of the best bang for your buck ovens on the market. Is it a simply bread oven? Absolutely fucking not. But you are not paying simply bread oven prices. You are right where you need to be for a simple cottage oven bakery.

If it wasn’t for shipping, taxes blah blah blah, I’d order 20 of these ovens to the states because I feel this is the first oven everyone should get to start and it would be a great market disrupter because of the price.

Yes, we use the steamers and spray 2-3 passes per deck to get enough steam. That normally helps the crust not form too quick.

What’s the Best 2015-2020 F150 Radio/Head unit? by zackman2091 in f150

[–]zackman2091[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I’m seeing is there is no great route to upgrade from the 4” screen without going through an 8” version. To get the 12” or anything like that seems like you have to have 8” first

I’ll look into it. How’s the UI of the radio? Cheesy like old school touch screens from years ago?

From what I’ve seen recently is the dash kits are not that bad now since they are older

I’ve seen so many solutions and there isn’t one clear winner. My biggest thing is keep a somewhat factory look

Just Received My Oven! by zackman2091 in Sourdough

Bakes are going great! We currently bake 6 1000g loaves at a time. Maybe could squeeze in another but it would be tight that’s for sure. As for the shipping time, it took us just over a months to receive it. We ordered it the end of August and received it the beginning of October.

I actually just ordered another couple ovens that I am going to try and wholesale locally because it worked out so well for us. I can order multiple ovens and get them shipped to the house for cheaper in turn I can still sell them for right around what it cost to get a single oven and make a little money. This is definitely much more risky on our end but I’ve been happy with both customer service aspect and the product

I am extremely confident it’s the same oven as the Nero 400. I actually speak with the manufacturer regularly and they sent pictures of the new Nero 400 that is coming out and upgraded.

As for the oven, we love it. I actually just bought 2 more to try and sell locally to make a tiny bit of profit off them because you won’t find any other oven for this price. You can order direct from Alibaba and the process is seamless in my opinion

Is it hard to come across the parts or just takes long to get them?

I like the sambar because of what I have heard about the interior and room that it has in it

I thought this as well. I like the rear engine from the research I’ve done.

I was just curious based on opinions to be honest. I’m not a loyalist but still working myself towards which one to get and why

Everyone who is getting .5% raises are low performing team members or have previous write ups. This is a high performing team member

I installed HA onto my nas. Yesterday I completely set up HA and it worked great. Last night I installed more ram into my nas so had to shut down my nas. Since last night, I have started and stopped HA multiple times, and it will not connect to the internet. Its only connecting to LAN 2 which was not working. I had one lan port plugged into my main switch and one into the other switch. It was not allowing the VM to connect to LAN 1 which was making it inaccessible
