Why not just a 5 gallon bucket?

AVeryLargeRadish posted:This. The grind is a little on the rough side compared to my old one but it outputs like 3-4 times as much. This, except get the 9 incher so that if someone ever asks for the pepper, you can bang it down on the table and say "This model is called the magnum. I dont know if it's a better pepper grinder or dildo"

I just got a Bosch Universal mixer. I've made triple and quadruple batches of everything and it's amazing

Submarine Sandpaper posted:My, I think 11 cup, Cuisinart dies on hummus and a few other things. I've learned to just not use a food processor but need to just get that 14 cup. My DLC-10S Pro 7 cup handles hummus fine and does 2 pounds of bread dough no problem. If I do 3 batches of dough the thermal override shuts it off on the third batch if I'm not cautious about kneading times

Get an eclectic mix from goodwill so that each piece is unique but vaguely related, either by color palette or theme. I love it.

Are all cheap pasta rollers functionally equivalent? I make raviolis a couple times in the winter, that's it. I have a hard time imagining that I'll make fresh pasta so much more frequently if I have a roller.

Get a cheaper bernzomatic than the one suggested above and use the money you saved on something extravagant, like gold leaf.

If/When this all blows over, membership in the Kansas City Barbeque Society ($40/year) includes several Restaurant Depot day passes. I was considering it briefly before I found a supply shop near me that was open to the public.

I store my flour in food grade 5 gallon buckets which cost $7 at the restaurant supply store. Home Depot's web page says the homer buckets aren't food grade, but they sell Leaktite brand food safe ones for almost the same amount of money (here). You can also snag 4 or 8 qt Cambros for not too much money, they were discussed as being reasonably priced from supply stores in one of the GWS threads recently, maybe the bread thread, but they're also only reasonably priced when you amortize the cost over several years. If you're using regular ziplock bags from the grocery store, I expect those are safe enough and enough of a buffer that they count as safety insulators for any unsafe outer container. Preppers use special mylar bags with oxygen absorbers, but they are expensive and I think uncalled for here. Are you near Burlington? The restaurants have to buy their equipment from somewhere, maybe they will just give or sell you some fish tubs for super cheap? Edit: 10 pounds of flour is just about 2 gallons. You could just get a single box of 2 gallon ziplock bags and be done with it. Happiness Commando fucked around with this message at 15:32 on May 17, 2020 |

Putty posted:Looking for recommendations on some equipment: You want a horizontal dehydrator. Excalibur makes good plastic ones, but to a large degree the expensive things are a brand name and a stainless exterior. All of them are just an electric heating element, a fan, and some racks. Digital temperature control might be something you care about, but really, just look for something with stainless racks and you should be good to go? For a pizza steel, you want A36 hot rolled steel, like this one. If you are only going to make a few pies at a time, get a 1/4" thick steel. If you are going to have extended pizza parties, get 3/8". Look for metal shops near you for in person pricing, A36 sheet/plate is super easy to find. If it has mill scale on it, soak it in vinegar for a few days, give it a good soapy scrub, and then a single coat of oil like you would season cast iron.

SSJ_naruto_2003 posted:Also I need a pizza peel. How hard is it to launch a pizza with a metal peel? I dont have a lot of room in my kitchen for one of each and also trying to save money. I only have a metal one and its fine for up to ~60% hydration, haven't gone higher. Plenty of flour and semolina are key.

I grew up using a kitchen that was... functional. I've been living on my own for 15 years. I just started using a whisk in the last 6 months I think I'm going to buy a few more.

I use delitainers for leftover storage almost exclusively. My housemates, however, do not, and I can't deal with an entire drawer full of mismatched lids and bases anymore. Can someone recommend a decent set of tupperware that ideally has only a few lid sizes?

I have that same Krups grinder, or an almost identical one. I purchased it 10 years ago and it still gets the job done.

Are there decent 240v 2 burner induction cooktops? I'm probably going to move into an apartment with an electric stove and I dont want to use it. This way I could take advantage of the 240v plug that's already there instead of using the one other (?) 120v circuit. Duxtop only makes 120v as far as I can tell.

I found a convection Breville on my local Craigslist for under $100 and another one on an auction site. I'll get a Breville. And either budget be damned or keep looking until I snag a cheaper used one. Thanks goons.

prom candy posted:I've seen a few people online saying deli containers are great for pantry and fridge organization, but is it really safe to put hot food in these and also throw them in the dishwasher? Some delitainers are not polypropylene (PP recycling #5). Those are not safe at high temperatures. PP can be pressure cooked, it's totally safe* to put delitainers made of PP in the dishwasher or microwave *we live in a capitalist hell world, FDA standards may not align with your personal beliefs, etc.

It's been a bit since we talked about spice jars, so let's talk about my spice jars. This is my current setup - an assortment of reused and recycled jars, repurposed and mostly accurately labeled, stored in stadium seating. It's not terrible, but I'm pretty sure it's not ideal. I want them to stay in that cabinet. Any good suggestions?

Peugeot wins on aesthetics and fine grind. Magnum wins on having a dildo name and volume of ground pepper per turn. I have a magnum and have been using it for about 10 years
