Grinding flour for bread
Comments (22)I have a Golden Grain Grinder that is 30+ years old...my dad gave it to me about 15 years ago. I really like it. It has 2 stones that grind the grains and you can adjust it from coarse to cake-flour fine. All of you that are grinding wheat, can you tell me what is the whitest wheat? We have several Amish and Mennonite communities near us and I have bought several wheat and flours from them, but they all have their own name for them. Some call it "naturally" white wheat...is that whole wheat, or just unbleached? Last week I bought 3 lbs of "hard spring white wheat" to grind, and it does seem to be whiter than a lot of wheats....See MoreConsidering a Miele Cannister Vac
Comments (17)I love my Miele Capricorn. It's a great machine, quiet, and you can't beat the filtration system! BUT, I've only had it a few months and already found a couple of problems. One is that the power head attachment for carpet does not do "to the edge" cleaning. My old Royal sucked up from the sides to get the "edge" between the carpet and the moulding. With this one I have to use remove the power head and run the wand along the edge of the carpet. Also, I just forked over $45.00 to have the power head cleaned. I thought it was broken and took it in for repair thinking it was under warranty. Wrong!! We have a golden/lab mix and 2 cats who all shed like crazy. Apparently all of the hair was clogging the power head. Since I don't want to keep paying them to clean it I will have to take it apart every month or two and clean it out. Not what I expected from a $1200.00 machine!...See MoreHealthier flour for bechamel
Comments (17)A combination of things has put an end to my bechamel days. First, the attempt to eat lower fat and calories, but also I have become increasingly sensitive to lactose, or something or other in what passes for milk these days. I was never a milk drinker and just don't use it enough to warrant getting raw milk, which I'm sure would help with the flavor and lactose issues. The last couple of times I have tried to make it I just wasn't satisfied and I think it has to do with the shelf stable milk I used, which is what I have on hand nowdays. I read the alternative recipes posted here with great interest. I find that mostly these days I just use a reduced liquid for my sauces, even pasta. Or just top with evoo and parm. or feta cheese....See MoreAny recommendations for a vacuum to replace broom for hardwood floors?
Comments (24)d_gw - WOW!. I find it totally cool learning about the creative ways that people use to make a living. I think that is awesome. When I got married, many moons ago, we jumped the broom. I would have spent $350 on that broom. MAYBE. Well, probably not. I am cheap..... On the other hand, the brooms in your link are like works of art, and I love art! Which brings me to a art showing that I went to a couple of months ago. Half the exhibit consisted of a display of brooms from various time periods. On another note, I put my vacuum together this morning and I was so excited I decided to sprinkle some rice, bulgar wheat, cornmeal, and cherrios on the floor and see how it would handle. I recorded my results. There must be something seriously wrong for me to be so excited that I would post a video.... I first tried pencil shavings and cheerios with similar results....See More- 9 years agolast modified: 9 years ago
