Front Motor Fault stranded me twice.

Front Motor Fault stranded me twice.

Twice in two months I’ve had it towed to the dealer. Twice, the issue resolved itself at the dealer.

WTF!?!? I can’t drive a car that will randomly strand me.

Caputo Fioreglut Focaccia Recipe — since they removed the recipe from the bag

Posting this because Caputo seems to have removed or changed the focaccia recipe on newer Fioreglut bags, and I had to piece it together from an older bag.

I made this today with 750g of Caputo Fioreglut and it came out legitimately excellent — crispy bottom, airy interior, real focaccia texture instead of “GF bread.”

I specifically use 750g because it fits a standard cookie sheet almost perfectly.

Recipe I used:

- 750g Caputo Fioreglut gluten free flour
- 712g water
- 2 packets active dry yeast
- 75g olive oil in dough
- 35g salt

Method:

  1. Mix everything until fully homogeneous in a mixer. It’s more like a thick batter than traditional dough.
  2. Spread into an oiled sheet pan.
  3. Cover and rise about 2-3 hours at room temp or a bit warmer. 
  4. Push out to the corners if needed and dimple with well-oiled fingers.
  5. Top with salt and olive oil. I do it with garlic confit oil, oregano, thyme, flaky salt, and chili flakes.
  6. Bake at 425°F for 26 minutes.

A few notes:

- I did NOT use convection.
- The dough really likes oil. Don’t skimp on pan oil.
- The rise looked almost too wet before baking but it puffed beautifully.
- Bottom crisped up better after leaving it directly on the hot sheet pan for a few extra minutes after bake.

Honestly one of the best gluten free breads I’ve made. The crumb was surprisingly open for GF focaccia.

Trying to decide if Delta Comfort+ is worth it for our family trip to Copenhagen and would love a sanity check.

Current situation:

  • BNA → CPH overnight on Delta
  • Family of 5 all on one PNR
  • Delta Gold Medallion, but haven't ever flown with 5 people on 1 PNR
  • Upgrade offer is ~$306 per person
  • Comfort cabin is already starting to fill up, but there are still enough seats for all 5 together right now

Question:

Would you pay ~$300 pp for Comfort+ on an overnight transatlantic in this situation?

I’m planning an outdoor kitchen / patio project and need help turning my rough concept into a SketchUp model.

What I have:

  • Property survey / lot dimensions
  • Patio / deck dimensions
  • Rough appliance list and sizes
  • General layout ideas
  • Pictures

What I need:

  • Someone to help build a reasonably detailed SketchUp model/render of the space
  • Doesn’t need to be architectural/permitted construction docs — just enough to visualize layout, spacing, and aesthetics

Questions:

  1. Is this the right sub to find someone for paid help?
  2. If not, where do people typically hire for this kind of SketchUp freelance work?
  3. If you do this professionally, feel free to DM me examples / rates

I'm going to pay. I just don’t really want to spend 20 hours learning SketchUp for a one-off project.

Couldn’t find any data points so I figured I’d start this thread.

I’m super happy with it! Easy charging, lightweight and plenty fast.
