inAppreciation post: the baker at my local shop in Tulsa told me to weigh my flour, and my cookies finally stopped turning into flat discs
The part nobody talks about is how much this changes your shopping. Once you start weighing, you notice the same brand of flour can be packed tighter or looser from bag to bag, so even the recipe you've made a hundred times can drift on you. I started writing the gram weights right on the recipe card, and now a batch tastes the same whether it's a dry winter or a muggy July. Humidity alone can add a few grams of water weight to your flour, which is why summer cookies used to betray me. Weighing takes the guesswork out of the one thing you can actually control.

inAm I the only one who marks tube sheets with a soapstone before rolling, not after?
Man, I had the same argument with a guy on a jobsite in Hammond last summer and we ended up timing both ways just to shut him up. Turns out marking first saved us close to an hour on the tie-in, so you're not late, you're just ahead of the guys still doing it backwards.
