What’s a good Crap4J replacement?

outfit called WMC mortgage in upstate New York. Just to repeat, he was making 75
to a 100 grand a month. That’s over a million dollars a year] had five cars, a 1.5 million dollar vacation house in Connecticut, and penthouse that he rented in Manhattan. And he made all this
money making very large loans to very poor people with bad credit.Glen Pizzolorusso: We looked at loans. These people didn’t have a pot to piss
in. They can barely make a car payment and we’re giving them a 300, 400
thousand dollar house.

We haz a book.. and a bucket:



So far we’ve made:
- Bread
- Pizza
- Sticky buns

Next up, we made the Challah dough. The bread came out well - very light and airy.


One super-cool thing: By not washing the 5 quart container, more complex flavors can be obtained. Less work and waste - my engineer side loves this.
Looks like we’ll be getting our next yeast from Costco - and keeping it in the freezer.
