[Sca-cooks] high-altitude cooking

[Susan Lin]

 Stefan:
thank you.  Because we are at 5300 feet I usually try a recipe as originally
written before making any adjustments.  It is also very dry here and that
makes a difference as well.

I have learned that my bread machine does not like too much yeast.

I will check out the file and thank you for the warm welcome.
