    What kind of oil for bread?

    I have kind of settled on Canola oil for my Italian bread and Kaiser rolls. I use ti to grease the bowl for primary rises also. I am open to suggestions, does anyone have a different favorite oil they have good success with? I initially started out with Olive Oil. I figured, why not, it is good...

    An ingenious little hydroponic setup.

    Very clever use of plastic pipe. I can't believe someone here did not think of this first! I guess I was giving everyone on the forum too much credit for being inventive! lol!! https://invidious.poast.org/watch?v=mimElkAepYY
