I have 8 balls.

[Brett-EDH]

Of dough. Pizza and wings today for Wildcard Saturday.

Made a 65% hydration recipe. 25% is double ground semolina and 75% 00. Both are Caputo 1kg sacks which work well for home use.







Notice how smooth my balls are. You really want smooth balls when forming your dough.



Doing a countertop rise. Ambient temp is 68°

What time?

 

[Brett-EDH]

What time?

Prolly around 530PST. Wings will go up soon for “lunch.” But it’s really a grazing day.

Nice! What cooker(s) will you use?

Planning on steel plate, over JDXL with some CA white oak chunks added for aroma. All on the E6.

 

[Brett-EDH]

The rise is going well.

Neighbors’ tangerine tree did well this year. If it’s growing over the fence and on my side they’re free to pick? Right?

I need a faster plane.

Looking good, Brett! I've got 4 dough balls just out of the fridge after ~30 hrs in the fridge. 50/50 Caputo Red bag/KA Bread Flour. Test driving my neighbor's Ooni Koda 16 tonight....

Nice tangerine haul!

Interested to see your results. What hydration you at in your mix?

The tangerines are good. Ate one already.

Will do!

Interested to see your results. What hydration you at in your mix?

Hydration is 62.5% (171g flour, 104g water, 3g olive oil, 4.8g salt, .25g ADY for a 280g ball.) I've used this dough many times, and it's very supple to stretch, comes out with a crisp cornicone, and nice chew.

Has this ever happened to you where your wings start out in an outer ring and then you come back to check them and they flew into a pile in the center? Really weird phenomenon. Lmk in the comments please .

In SF it’d be a moneymaker

So if you have 8 balls, does that mean you get four wives?

 

[Brett-EDH]

For the non-dairy one at home











Yes, that’s arugula

Oh, god no. One is more than I could ever handle.
