Steve I've done a bit of research and the s500 is basically flour with an emulsifier and vitamin c added- The emulsifier is called Datem (diacetyl tartaric acid ester of mono- and diglycerides, also called e472e) And the vitamin c is ascorbic acid (also called e300) They charge a fortune for that, you could mix your own in!

Yes of course, s500 is very good and that's why it's pricey, lot's of them on Amazon and Ebay at a lower price, or just buy really expensive bread flour, as I showcase in my video 😀

In white bread with improver video i noticed u were using 2 pans for same amount of dough one pan looks a bit smaller so i was curious how the smaler pan loaf will burst out of tin while baking , was it the smaller pan loaf that had tear on one side ?

I home bake bread in a machine Panasonic thing with 25 programs) My flour is Allinsons but I've no idea how old it is when I buy it. My loaves rarely last much more than 24 hours before they go a bit heavy, so I have been using a bread improver from Matthews Cotswold Mills and the results have been much better. A less dense loaf and longer shelf life. My wholemeal loaves I avoid but I have done a 50/50 with the improver and it is a decent loaf.

For high speed machine most bakery should have a water meter which has hot and cold water, I remember going back some years ago putting ice into the water, even than it was still to warm, going into the bread plant was just a plan in the Aston, it would have been quicker cut up on a table 😀 😉 fun in the bakery 😀 laters Steve 😋

Hello, Hope your doing well. Very interesting video, I must say. But the region where I am living don't have bread flour. I even try to make bread with yeast baking powder and baking soda. Though I am not happy with the results as it strongly smells like baking soda and from inside, it was darkerAnd little lighter in center. I wanted to know will be able to call my bread free of preservatives and chemicals if I will use Eka or s3? Also can I get good bread by somehow using yeast sugar bp bs as ingredients with weak flour?

Yes, I have used S500 but the only reason I stopped was the price of it, and not as good as another products on the market today, personally if you are looking for a product for frozen dough, then go round all the companies for samples, because each product has a different ending 😀 one thing is S500 was very good for retarding and freezing no problems at all, once again the price is the question 😀 laters Steve

How is wholemeal diabolical?

@crazybaker1

5 күн бұрын

@catecurl3790 The phrase "wholemeal diabolical" seems to be a play on words or an attempt to juxtapose two very different concepts-one being wholesome or healthy ("wholemeal," as in wholemeal bread) and the other being something evil or mischievous ("diabolical"). This could be used humorously or ironically to describe a situation or an object that appears to be healthy or good on the surface but has a hidden negative or troublesome aspect. For example, someone might refer to a health food that tastes terrible as "wholemeal diabolical," suggesting that although it's supposed to be good for you, it's actually unpleasant or difficult to enjoy. The phrase could also be used in a broader sense to describe something that seems virtuous or beneficial but has a darker, more problematic side. 😉
