American baking schools

Toast

I'm considering attending a week long couse for artisan breads. Any suggestions? I already live outside of Chicago, so the French Pastry School is one of my choices.

Thanks,

Ounces, grams, scales

Toast

Goodmorning all,

I've noticed in several blog entries that people use ounces and grams in thier recipes. Is it realy that important to be that exact with your measurements? If so, how much do you spend on a first time scale?

I am presently trying a starter that I found in the Joy of Cooking pg. 756. It didn't work well at all! I see al of these lovely starters and need a little help! Any suggestions?
