[00:00:24] Kuro-chan buying more ammo for the brutal slaughter of innocent duckies?

[00:05:53] Kuro-chan yes, of course you are.

[01:00:22] Kuro-chan banging duckies again?

[01:00:24] Kuro-chan disgusting...

[01:44:15] Kuro-chan oh No_One

[01:44:19] Kuro-chan good timing

[01:44:27] Kuro-chan have you ever tried the sponge approach to making bread?

[01:45:06] Kuro-chan No, mine was made today.

[01:45:16] Kuro-chan I tried the supposed technique today when I made bread and was scared by how much bigger and softer the loaf was

[01:45:28] Kuro-chan I also baked it in glassware

[01:46:11] Kuro-chan the book I was reading last night called it that

[01:46:30] Kuro-chan (I am always looking for ideas to improve how I make it; lately it felt like the loaves were getting a bit flat, lately)

[01:46:47] Kuro-chan ok I made a sandwich bread today, though I didn't use milk for liquid

[01:46:59] Kuro-chan I started with eggs, sugar, butter and salt and creamed the f-bomb out of them

[01:47:05] Kuro-chan like I do with cookies and cakes

[01:47:18] Kuro-chan so the yellow in the egg was pretty much gone.

[01:47:30] Kuro-chan I then added the warm water, flour and yeast and let it do it's thing

[01:47:34] Kuro-chan no, yeast bread, not cake

[01:47:48] Kuro-chan a little hard to tell if the yeast was working, but I saw enough bubbles in the mix

[01:48:04] Kuro-chan added the rest of the flour and worked it until the tackiness is gone, like I usually do

[01:48:17] Kuro-chan let it rest a while with another bowl flipped upside down and on top

[01:48:31] Kuro-chan then I did the normal thing: punch down, divide, flour a bit more to remove excess moisture

[01:48:47] Kuro-chan shaped and laid dough balls in the glassware

[01:48:58] Kuro-chan and was almost scared by how much they raised

[01:49:10] Kuro-chan the slices are too big for the toaster XD

[01:49:18] Kuro-chan and my raising time was less than normal.

[01:49:20] Kuro-chan Yeah.

[01:49:24] Kuro-chan I was really happy with the results.

[01:49:31] Kuro-chan I'll do the same next time and see if that happens again

[01:49:37] Kuro-chan I'll use a pinch less dough as well

[01:49:46] Kuro-chan Well

[01:49:58] Kuro-chan it was double the height of the glassware

[01:50:03] Kuro-chan I had to stop where it was. lol

[01:50:20] Kuro-chan In the normal place it sits in the oven, it was actually at risk of hitting the top of the oven

[01:50:39] Kuro-chan The extra leftovers from the next time I'll make into some cinnamon or butterscotch rolls

[01:51:00] Kuro-chan butterscotch rolls with cream cheese frosting are amazing :D

[01:51:12] Kuro-chan I was shocked by how fluffy the inside of the loaves

[01:51:20] Kuro-chan heard multiple compliments about it, today

[01:51:27] Kuro-chan which I don't normally hear, even when fresh

[01:51:38] Kuro-chan so yeah, I want to try this process again next time

[01:51:42] Kuro-chan see if I get the same results.

[01:51:55] Kuro-chan It really wasn't any harder to make it this way

[01:52:18] Kuro-chan since the glassware was mostly lined with parchment, it came out quite easily

[01:52:31] Kuro-chan just had to wait the better part of an hour for the glassware to cool down so I could clean them

[01:52:33] Kuro-chan lol

[01:53:46] Kuro-chan I always had better results with glassware when I used them for making my cinnamon rolls

[01:53:55] Kuro-chan the drawback to that was the cleanup

[01:53:56] Kuro-chan LOL

[01:55:57] Kuro-chan with cinnamon rolls?

[01:56:04] Kuro-chan you forget about all the stickies that remain behind :P

[01:57:01] Kuro-chan being deaf has it's advantages

[01:57:08] Kuro-chan Not having to hear people's b.s.

[01:57:13] Kuro-chan You can always close your eyes to avoid seeing it

[01:57:33] Kuro-chan actually the scrubbers I have are made from phentex

[03:19:45] Kuro-chan 🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊

[03:21:04] Kuro-chan I met a fox a few weeks back

[03:21:08] Kuro-chan He didn't stick around for long

[03:59:06] Kuro-chan Ducky! :)

[18:04:34] Kuro-chan :o

[18:04:35] Kuro-chan HI SKI!

[18:07:19] Kuro-chan I did yesterday

[18:07:25] Kuro-chan made some of the best bread I ever have

[18:07:27] Kuro-chan :o

[18:07:30] Kuro-chan and some apple muffins

[18:08:27] Kuro-chan yeah

[18:08:34] Kuro-chan it was crazy how much it raised.

[18:08:50] Kuro-chan I'll have to bake the loaves a bit lower next time

[18:09:15] Kuro-chan https://www.sott.net/article/472251-Charlie-Kirk-and-James-Lindsay-say-accusations-of-racism-are-just-a-way-to-control-people

[18:09:26] Kuro-chan https://www.sott.net/article/472239-Trudeau-Must-Go-hashtag-movement-keeps-growing-on-Twitter

[18:09:36] Kuro-chan Yeah that twitter thing it starting to get a lot of attention

[18:10:06] Kuro-chan People are going on twitter posting about how average and ordinary they are and how their dictatorship defines them as being intolerable, a real Hitler quote.

[18:10:13] Kuro-chan oh whoops

[18:10:20] Kuro-chan I posted those links in the wrong channel XD

[18:12:37] Kuro-chan I have baked for years. Any tips I can offer?

[18:15:05] Kuro-chan I have never touched a bread machine. All of mine have been hand kneaded and done in the oven.

[18:15:13] Kuro-chan I made three changes to how I made my loaves last time

[18:15:22] Kuro-chan and they turned out so big they don't fully fit in the toaster.

[18:15:47] Kuro-chan and it was getting a bit frustrating since they didn't seem to be raising as well as of late; was worried either I had forgotten to do something or there was an issue with my ingredients.

[18:15:58] Kuro-chan and I go from it feeling substandard to suddenly it's great

[18:16:24] Kuro-chan not just great but one of the best batches I ever made

[18:16:49] Kuro-chan I went from packets to those small jars to bulk purchases to get it wholesale

[18:17:01] Kuro-chan though I haven't seen the stuff I use at wholesale as of late which is a bit concerning.

[18:17:23] Kuro-chan fortunately, I have 4 or 5 of those right now, so It'll be a long time before it's an actual issue.

[18:17:30] Kuro-chan I may have to go back to bulk purchases, eventually.

[18:17:34] Kuro-chan I normally use active dry

[18:17:45] Kuro-chan so it needs a few minutes in warm water to properly proof

[18:18:56] Kuro-chan because I haven't used them for much of anything, I can't really say.

[18:19:08] Kuro-chan the general store owner gave me some leftover yeast she couldn't sell.

[18:19:15] Kuro-chan The packets worked fine, but the jar stuff did not

[18:20:27] Kuro-chan https://s3.amazonaws.com/fleischmann-wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/19212028/product-hero-desktop.jpg

[18:20:32] Kuro-chan Those kind of jars are common up here

[18:21:09] Kuro-chan What I usually get at wholesale are the 2lb. cryovac packs

[18:21:27] Kuro-chan which, price-wise, is about as good as I can do and it's reliable stuff

[18:22:19] Kuro-chan I use it for making pizza dough, burger buns, cinnamon rolls, etc.

[18:22:34] Kuro-chan the cryovac simply has the air removed from the package

[18:22:52] Kuro-chan I was thinking of trying to make donuts, some time.

[18:23:40] Kuro-chan I knead mine on a wooden board after I hand-mix it with a spoon in my large mixing bowl

[18:23:53] Kuro-chan (I normally make a big enough doughball for several loaves as a time to justify having the oven on

[18:24:31] Kuro-chan https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/Fleischmanns-Active-Dry-Yeast-Vacuum-Pack-2lb-907g-Highly-Stable-Reliable-Bake-White-Brown-Whole-Grain-Bread-Danish-Puff-Pastry-English-Muffins-Sweet/PRD62TU63EGSV6V

[18:24:39] Kuro-chan That's what I normally get (though not at walmart)

[18:25:10] Kuro-chan as yes, I recall it is a complicated process of stretch, fold, chill, stretch, fold, chill, etc.

[18:25:36] Kuro-chan start with easier something and get a feel for what works before you start with crazy.

[18:27:01] Kuro-chan you need to be careful what you include

[18:27:10] Kuro-chan for instance, cinnamon affects yeast and raising negatively.

[18:27:23] Kuro-chan I have used fennel in my rye bread without problems.

[18:27:42] Kuro-chan yeah I had to find that out the hard way when trying to make cinnamon raisin bread.

[18:27:54] Kuro-chan a light rye, yeah

[18:34:49] Kuro-chan that looks a bit burned. :p

[18:35:00] Kuro-chan reminds me of my raisin molasses bread

[18:46:09] Kuro-chan pumpernickel bread has cocoa in it

[18:51:34] Kuro-chan though I find it doesn't taste chocolate-y

[18:51:46] Kuro-chan I haven't made whole wheat in a while. I should get back to that :o

[18:52:07] Kuro-chan it was having the same problems as before, like with my white bread.

[18:52:21] Kuro-chan so if I have fixed the problem, then I should have super fluffy whole wheat.

[19:00:02] Kuro-chan yeah

[19:00:05] Kuro-chan dense dough balls ;(

[19:00:09] Kuro-chan even after extra raising time

[19:00:13] Kuro-chan not good :(

[19:11:28] Kuro-chan just think rye with molasses and cocoa

[19:13:13] Kuro-chan never done that

[19:29:31] Kuro-chan ^ that

[19:29:51] Kuro-chan I use large mixing bowls and to avoid a draft, I'll cover the bowl with another bowl

[19:30:07] Kuro-chan that helps to keep the moisture in the dough and gives it a good, controlled environment

[19:38:10] Kuro-chan hey socraticDev \o

[20:09:24] Kuro-chan I miss the ducks' ability to live... since they all end up dead.

[20:09:26] Kuro-chan ;-;

[20:38:02] Kuro-chan awesome

[20:44:56] Kuro-chan you can haz!

[21:10:03] Kuro-chan MINE

[21:10:15] Kuro-chan ;-;

[21:13:43] Kuro-chan ducks are for hugs

[21:13:55] Kuro-chan that there is an unhealthy obsession for banging ducks is a little concerning

[22:58:19] Kuro-chan The advantages of a desktop, it seems.

[22:58:25] Kuro-chan Or even a laptop

[23:07:31] Kuro-chan ducky! \o/
