  1. now not looking for trouble esp now but it dies find me .... its written in may books , and perhaps on the internet that " better commercial " pasta , aside from better ingredients to start with is better , not just w those brass dies that give the pasta a bit of a micro-fuzzy surface but because those better pasta "" Houses "" control the drying process so it takes a lot longer than the cheaper pastas I have not done personal studies to confirm this i did note some time ago there was a "" Top " Italian pasta that come in a brown bag. it was exuded w those brass dies. I can say that more sauce stuck to the pasta , but it was very tasty just not so much more me back then price etc. two glasses of table red were an equalizer I think
  2. yep you will know it when you see as does the Amazon Bot which cruises the Internet to undercut any lower price than theirs until it can put its ( before now ) price back up to what it was in the first palce remember Amazon takes ~ 15 % or so ? it it was $ 2.00 CND or USD that made them 25 cents / sale grantes a bazillion sales , @ $ 2.00 very nice , and fine but @ $ 20.00 for the same item " that's $ 2.50 /sale and well you can do the math the bot didn't get the memo.
  3. @DiggingDogFarm and Amazon , of course does not Lust for gouging ?
  4. @JoNorvelleWalker next spring everything willing might be less stessfull and much more relaxed I am hoping and no no stimulus check for me BTW gad you have the VBC but on the manual they suggested and the Item you hope to Blast and Chill "" Do not cover or place the food within a container unless necessary. "" granted a SV might not be thought of a container,

    Lunch 2020

    @Anna N that's what I like to see food pOrn at its very best so many members are elevating their Game thanks now Im elevating my roasted green coffee game by venturing in to the Jungle and trying the same green bean but at two different roast temperatures . radical it is . p.s. mixed together of course
  6. and then there is Goliath . season 3 : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goliath_(TV_series) water issues everywhere .
  7. im just guessing here and why not ? if you Fz something w micro crystals and the whole item stays Fz , I cant see how any of the micro crystals get to be macro crystals , , unless they thaw and refreeze at a higher temp unless they have a mind of their own
  8. @teonzo I take it you have a BC what model ? what do you use it for ?

    Breakfast 2020!

    Moe : Ill light a candle.
  10. @ElsieD wow , those look soooooo good. congratulations
  11. @teonzo if Im here next spring , and fully vaccinated and I get the 25 % off then maybe . I wonder if you can blast - freeze SV bags and the bag doesnt suffer the manual says to BF items not in containers or I think it said that. my list for next spring is getting quite long , BTW
  12. this ref comes from Sweetmaria's where i buy my green coffee beans and don't work : https://legacy.sweetmarias.com/library/new-video-air-roasts-closeup-on-roast-levels/ as Ive mentioned , their air popper is only $ 20 , and comes w 4 lbs of green coffee they select the beans , but they don't sell ' seconds ' if you enjoy your cup of coffee , Ill warn you right now you will become hooked on roasting your own , better , cheaper , and the blend is completely up to you ! pls post if you try this.
  13. @Kim Shook very interesting Idea.
  14. Im not sure ' regular bacon grease ' is really worth saving although we live in Intresting and challenging times its unlikely those calories are what makes a difference for most of us. up to you Id just keep the High End stuff and savor it. along w EVOO and the like. if you keep the ordinary stuff in your refrigerator or freeze it that won't hurt just in case
  15. @Smithy I went to the site and had very little Ad-Anoyance what ever OS you use for your browser their might be an AdBlocker which you should install , carefully for Safari on a Mac there is this which I use : https://adblockplus.org it might be available for other OS's I highly recommend it that being said I cant see most embedded vids here I doubt it because of the AdBlocker maybe because FlashPlayer is a problematic add om
  16. I wonder if the type of bacon grease matters in baking I think if might matter a lot. commercial bacon grease is one thing but ' artisanal ' bacon grease another Bentons , Broadbent etc are very very very smoky that might work or it might not.
  17. Yikes : https://www.ebay.com/c/2263580485 beakers seem to be $ 50. you have to store in a beaker it seems
  18. @Toliver "" green bell pepper "" Ive have warned members here over over and over again about the Evil , insidious GBP See ?
  19. @JoNorvelleWalker being a student of Great British Menu for years https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_British_Menu [ed.: Season 15 . broadcast now , seems to have lost its way ] the blast chiller always was pair w a PacoJet https://pacojet.com/en/ https://pacojet.com/en/pacojet_product/pacojet-2-plus-en/ no kidding .
  20. @JoNorvelleWalker Soooo now that your carted your unit upstairs what are you going to do with it ? looking forward to your experimental analysis why maybe next spring .....

  23. just to chime in : Ive made pasta . that puts it in perspective I did use a cuisinart w the old fashioned metal dough hook 11 cup PrepPlus flour // salt // egg // water run until single ball rest crank italian pasta machine its down stairs done used it for ravioli and cannelloni remember : I did it , so you can too. P.S.: almost got the motor for the pasta machine then a pasta place , just fre3sh pasta , cut to order opened near by same ownership as the place I used to go to in the BOS North End.
  24. my father used to eat Ritz crackers w 1/4 " of butter and 1/4 " ++ of liverwurst. no sauce. he made it to 86. he did have some reconstructive work done , x 2.
  25. I went to the vista site : https://www.vestaprecision.com/products/blast-chiller-freezer-frysta but could not navigate beyond that are they no longer selling them ? Id very much like to hear how they work in the h0ome setting or if there is a manual one can D/L on line.
