Thanks to everyone who's posting this kind of detail about their procedures.

I've read a lot here about which ingredients are used and when, but not always as much about the "handling" details. I suspect that some of these handling details may make a significant difference, a difference which is not captured when we simply list the ingredients in our recipes.

You are correct. And I'm glad you learned some things. I didn't intend to hijack your thread.
