    as a Home Brewer who would capture some of my yeast after fermentation and make a 'starter' for next time, I can say that yeast tends to 'adapt' to YOU and YOUR conditions.  
    Bigtime brewers do NOT send away to WyeYeast for more, but rather culture yeast for their conditions / style / desires.    

    Wouldn't surprise me to learn that YOUR yeast has done so, as well.

    Garlic Powder, Dried Parsley and 8oz of cheddar chopped pretty small. It was 90% Bread Flour and 10% WW. I was at roughly 75% hydration.

    A recent sourdough focaccia, topped with garlic olive oil and everything bagel seasoning.   Didn’t last 3 hours in the house.

    Bumpity bump. 

    A riff on Bryan Ford’s pan de coco. This Honduran style is not as sweet as the Filipino style I’ve done before. 



    Farkin’ good,  fresh out of the oven. Even better when toasted a bit, and slathered with homemade jam.

    Haha!  I guess it has been a minute.  I do FB to keep track of rodeos and local jackpots.  They do it all on FB.  I also use it to archive photos.  If not for that I would gladly get rid of it.

    I talked to Ba-lack-y maybe two months ago.  He was doing well.  He promises that he’s wearing clothes for public photos now.

    Bump!

    Baked a loaf after a loooooong while.

     Pain au bacon grease (because I ate the bacon). WW 20%, 70%ish hydration. Timeline was kinda squirrelly, so didn’t prove quite right. But, still delicious! :)

    And… bump, again. 

    baked a boule, after quite some time. Almost forgot how good homemade sourdough is.
