    Why do you ferment to 75%? Where do these percentages come from?

    • @urbantreats_sydney
      @urbantreats_sydney วันที่ผ่านมา

      75% rise is based on dough temperature and also balances flavour. In colder weather I will proof longer and in summer less, especially if I am going to put the dough in the fridge. Actually you have given me a good idea for a video to explain this in better detail

    • @magdalenarzeplinska
      @magdalenarzeplinska วันที่ผ่านมา

      @ What will happen when you ferment for examply 100% or 50%? Whether it depends on hydration either or not?

    • @urbantreats_sydney
      @urbantreats_sydney วันที่ผ่านมา

      @magdalenarzeplinska alot of it depends on temperature. But let's say your dough is warm, at 50% it would be nice and fluffy and 100% would be over proofed. If your dough is cold, 50% could be dense and 100% nice and fluffy

    @jeff547943 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I’ve followed your advice and have had great results. I noticed the larger amounts of starter stored in the fridge tend develope more liquid and acid I tested using a small amount equivalent to scrapings and it seemed to go very firm and didn’t produce any liquid and almost had no odour. I used this to kick off a 3 day refresh cycle and it seemed to work well. Because I’m concerned using such a small amount of starter as my base I always keep a larger amount incase it dies off but I use the small amount Ignorance is bliss 😅😅

    • @urbantreats_sydney
      @urbantreats_sydney 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yeah I find the same thing, I usually also only keep the scrapings in the fridge, In this video I think I had a lot more in the jar because I was in a rush my last bake! Don't worry about your starter dying, I've done so much abuse to my starter over the years it always bounces back 😂

      Welcome mate! What state are you in? I use 'wholegrain milling bakers white organic flour' in my opinion it's the best flour, I would test the flour hydration between seasons because the water can change a little

    • @nathanmartin8663
      @nathanmartin8663 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you!! I’m in Brisbane. I’m actually using the same flour as you. I had no luck above 80% with it as it just seems to slump after final proofing. Don’t think I’m over proofing either… I’ll keep experimenting though.

    • @urbantreats_sydney
      @urbantreats_sydney 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @nathanmartin8663 80% is too much for this flour alone, I add 10% wholewheat (same company wholegrain milling ) and 80% is then doable without any major mistakes like shaping etc. I personally like 75% hydration, it's my favourite sweet spot

    • @nathanmartin8663
      @nathanmartin8663 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Awesome. Thanks for the tip! I’m pretty aligned with this in my experiments. I also have the same brand stone ground wholewheat flour and in my “normal” loaf I’m adding around 10% also. Standard hydration is around 77% (pretty well aligned to the Tartine country loaf recipe). Thanks heaps for the comments!!

I think this is the problem I've been having with my starter, I'm in hot/humid north Queensland, so I'd really like to know the feeding ratio for the next 2 days before I try again to bake. Thanks

      No problem! So I will take my starter out of the fridge 3 days before use and feed it 1:10:10 and wait until it starts to sink, around 20 to 24 hours, feed it again 1:10:10 by this stage the acidity should be minimum. Then just before baking I will do a feed around 1:4:4 to start increasing the size of my starter a day before use, just before baking I aim for 1:2:2 or 1:4:4 again

    Nice video. I do prefer the buttercream center over the chocolate gnash, but it looks good. How is the cookie part, do you have issues with air getting in between the top of the cookie and the bottom? How does on prevent that?

    • @urbantreats_sydney
      @urbantreats_sydney 10 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you! I also prefer buttercream, especially salted caramel buttercream, which I hope to make a video on soon! When you say the top and bottom of the cookie, do you mean hollows? I rarely get hollows these days especially the way I do it in the video, hollows usually happen because of incorrect meringue mixing

    At what temp should my fridge be set at because when I've bulk ferment to 50% and shaped and put into fridge after 18 to 24 hours ive got no change in dough rise at all great videos 👍

    • @urbantreats_sydney
      @urbantreats_sydney 10 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Depends on your dough temperature before you put it in the fridge, if it's a cold dough it will slow down much faster, and if the dough is very warm it will take much longer to slow down. My fridge is usually 2 degrees in summer and 4 in winter

      @michaelhedges41070 they can be awkward at first, I've learnt now to break it with your finger fast, and if you do go over the line a little it doesn't matter, just go a little over 50% at the end for example

    Ah hang on 5400 flour 600gr of flour from starter total 6000 flour 4200gr water and 600 gr water from starter total 4800gr Water 4800/6000 is 80% Do this make sense?

    • @urbantreats_sydney
      @urbantreats_sydney 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

      That's right you need the water and flour from the starter too, 4800÷6000=0.8 (80%) the flour is the white/wholewheat and the starter flour

  • @tony22226
    @tony22226 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Need to add 600 to both those numbers from the starter. So it's 6000 and 4800

    80% includes the water from the starter as well ?
