BAGEL BATCH ROUND 5 at open Saturday 4/25

Improvements made in batch 4
- Decreased hydration rate did produce denser bagel with more chew
- Additional mixing produced tighter bagel shapes
- Faster handling producing fewer overproofed bagels and fewer airy pockets and reduced bready quality
- Parmesan bagels def work

Further Improvements intended for batch 5
- Further increased mixing for even tighter bagel shapes
- Better handling to preserve more bagels with good shape
- Reduced yeast addition to ideally facilitate longer cold storage and reduced fermentation particularly as bagels warm prior to baking
- Tweak bake timing hoping to increase Maillard reactions on bagels without sacrificing oven spring

Sandwiches available, multiple bagels available, multiple cream cheeses, get out here homies 🥯🥯🥯🥯

Gahdayum yall that was a crazy week 😮‍💨😮‍💨 We just had our top food sales and draft beer sales weeks of all time 🎉🎉🥳🥳 We cooked so much dang pizza I had to turn off online ordering yesterday so we had enough to serve guests at the bar!!

Thanks so much to all the media groups that showed us love this week!! from was out filming live segments at our early on Tuesday (I’d say bright and early but the sun wasn’t even up when we started 😆😆) named us to their 2026 pizza shops hot list. put our story and recent accolades on their front page, and ran an article on their website

It was so cool to see a ton of new faces and make a bunch of new friends this week. And ofc gotta thank all our regulars that came out in force as usual. We had multiple birthday parties, karaoke, paint and sip, arts and crafts club, and open mic. The vibes were high as hell.

It’s so exciting to see things coming together and I’m absolutely amped. If I’ve slept 15 hours the last 3 nights I’d be surprised but I woke up at 7:30 this mornin like I’d just got back from a tropical vacation. Can’t believe this time next week is 2 years. Looking forward to seein our bud back in the kitchen for our 2 year reunion on 4/20. Most of all can’t wait to share more tasty snacks and delightful drinks with all ya’ll.
