Hotel room beer in San Jose.

Made a sourdough focaccia yesterday. Came out really nice. Next time (tomorrow) I'll try pushing hydration to around 100%. This one was just north of 90%.

It's a pity West Coast IPAs are almost hard to find these days

Yesterday's bake. 60% "Halbweiss" (semi-white?) flour, 20% stone milled whole grain wheat, 20% whole grain spelt. Really pleased with the crumb on this one :)

Last night's lineup of beers I brought back from my recent US trip 🙂

Still local compared to Switzerland where I'm visitng from 😆

Continuing to enjoy the food and beer options in San Diego. Lunch beer and burger at Working Class. Pale from the crypt by Liquid gravity.

Hop Fu and Son of northern dankness by North Park, and Love is a dream by Electric Brewing. All at North Park

Also had a pizza Sunday yesterday 😁 Quote happy with how they came out. Baked in my Ooni Koda 12.

This weekend I made a side-by-side comparison of three loaves made using different wheat flours. Didn't expect any huge differences and didn't find any :P though one of them stood out with a faint but distinct bitter flavor which I did not care for.

Some local swiss lager at a mountain hut this weekend. The beer itself was nothing to speak of, but that didn't really matter with such a view 😄
