I have used spring water to avoid the chlorine here killing the yeast
I have done rises in my oven here at 80 degrees to try to avoid the humidity
First rise looks great but second just doesn't arrive
I'm using using Fleishshman instant yeast. I use a different brand back home.
Just trying to make some nice bread here to give to my new neighbours. So far best bet is to visit Publix and donate their bread  Any ideas? |
Don’t measure your ingredients. Weigh them (with a cheap scale from Amazon). It makes a big difference.
Here are some sample recipes for a bread machine, it has measures AND. Weights. Use that to modify your own bread recipe.
