Failed Again! Joshua Weissman’s Cinnamon Rolls | But Cheaper
I tried making Joshua Weissman’s cinnamon rolls again. They didn’t turn out. Again. I’m going to quit on this recipe and look for another one. I gotta say, I’m a little disappointed.

I Failed at Making Joshua Weissman’s “But Cheaper Cinnamon Rolls”
While watching Joshua Weissman’s video “1 Dollar Giant Cinnamon Rolls | But Cheaper,” I thought it looked easy enough so I decided to give it a go. Turns out, I need to learn a few things before I’ll be able to make cinnamon buns worth eating.

My first attempt at cinnamon buns failed hard
I tried making cinnamon buns tonight. I watched the video by Joshua Weissman that explains how to make them. It looked easy enough. He posted the recipe on his website. Mine did not turn out.
Stay tuned for the video.
There’s one missing because I tried to eat it. -
Day 7 – Sourdough Starter
I tried a float test today to see if my sourdough starter is ready. It isn’t. I fed it today and will leave it for a day or two. These daily updates will stop but I will definitely make a video if and when I can make a loaf of sourdough. I’ll make videos about whatever else I try next. Thanks for following along, folks!

Day 6 – Sourdough Starter
That film of liquid is back. It’s called, “hooch,” and it’s not harmful. It’s a sign that the starter is hungry. Today, I fed it with 100 g of flour and 75 g of water, same as yesterday. The time lapse I tried to make over the last day didn’t work because I didn’t leave a light on.

Day 5 – Sourdough Starter
I’m not sure if it’s going well. There was water pooling on top of the mixture today. I stirred it in and then added 100 g of flour and only 75 g of water, as suggested in the comments of yesterday’s video. I’ll let it sit for another day and see how it goes.

Day 2 – Sourdough Starter
I was shocked to see a few bubbles in the starter today. I’m glad to see that it’s working, though. The math is confusing me a bit because it’s looking to me like 100 g is being added on every day. If that’s the case, there’s going to be a lot of starter at the end of this week.

Day 1 – Sourdough Starter
Who hasn’t wanted to make sourdough in the last two years? I thought I’d give it a go. After watching a number of videos and reading a few articles, I decided to just go ahead and see if I can’t get something to work. I’m going to try to track my progress over the next week.
