Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, answer a follow-up question from the paragraph. The paragraph has a prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by answer prefix 'A:'. The final followup question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'.

CONTEXT: This seems nonsensical to try with your home stove. You are correct, the rate of gas output is directly controlled by the knobs. In a typical home stove, drilling holes will not increase the gas output. It would affect the gas to air ratio, but I doubt it would result in an increase of temperature, and more likely a decrease.  <sep>  Q: gas range hack for greater power output: does it work? A: utp  Q: I would like to improve power output A: This seems nonsensical to try with your home stove  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Kenny suggested drilling hole in gas ranges, but I want to know if this works ona standard gas range?
You are correct, the rate of gas output is directly controlled by the knobs. In a typical home stove, drilling holes will not increase the gas output

CONTEXT: You can wait as long as you need to between pre-cook (that's the simmering) and finish (the steaming), it's how things work in restaurants.The steaming time will only go up if you let the temperature drop appreciably. Even so, you shouldn't need more than an extra minute or so. Steaming is pretty benign to rice.As far as the safety concerns...if you keep the temperature above 135 F, you are out of the danger zone, and you can hold there forever. The danger zone is 41 to 135 F, but the goal in cooling foods is to get it from hot to cool in 6 hours...below 70 in two, and then 4 hours to make it below 41 (yes, I'm ServSafe certified). So your hypothetical 30-45 minutes shouldn't cause you a problem. But watch it if you start going long.  <sep>  Q: How long can I hold brown rice between boiling and steaming?###I use a technique from Cooks Illustrated for cooking my brown rice. I simmer for 25 minutes and then steam for 10. It gets a nice consistent result. But how long can I hold the rice between simmering and steaming? A: You can wait as long as you need to between pre-cook (that's the simmering) and finish (the steaming), it's how things work in restaurants  Q: Would I need to increase the steam time? A: The steaming time will only go up if you let the temperature drop appreciably. Even so, you shouldn't need more than an extra minute or so. Steaming is pretty benign to rice  Q: Are there any safety concerns? A: if you keep the temperature above 135 F, you are out of the danger zone, and you can hold there forever  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Does it matter if it sits out for 30 - 45 minutes before finishing?
30-45 minutes shouldn't cause you a problem. But watch it if you start going long

CONTEXT: I've struggled with this issue as well because I live in a moist climate and instant espresso powder cakes up on me between uses.Generally recipes which use instant espresso power are trying to add a kick of bitter and roasted flavors to deepen chocolate flavors and make them richer. You can try substituting instant coffee 1:1, but the flavor of the baked good will certainly suffer a loss of richness. Increasing the amount of instant coffee, however, would likely add more bitter or acidic flavors -- and caffeine -- to the cookie or cake than you want. Also, instant coffee takes longer to dissolve, so it needs to be added straight to a liquid.There's no real way to substitute liquid coffee in most recipes, such as chocolate cookie or brownie recipes, because the recipe has no water in it in the first place. In the rare recipes where there is water, you could substitute strong-brewed coffee for an equal quantity of water+espresso powder, and this would likely work fairly well.So, summing up: there's no really good substitute for instant espresso powder in recipes which call for it that I've found with some significant experimentation. Hopefully someone else has had better ideas than me.  <sep>  Q: I love instant espresso but would like know if there are any instant espresso powder substitutions? A: You can try substituting instant coffee 1:1, but the flavor of the baked good will certainly suffer a loss of richness  Q: How would the taste be affected overall? A: Increasing the amount of instant coffee, however, would likely add more bitter or acidic flavors  Q: Do I use the coffee the same way as the espresso powder? A: instant coffee takes longer to dissolve, so it needs to be added straight to a liquid  <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Can I use the coffee as a substitute in recipes that require espresso powder?
