Hello. Excited to start baking. What is the timeline for a public beta?

You can download a release now from github. It’s locked to florencenet so you’ll need to get some test tokens from the faucet. If you want to use a ledger, I’ll be pushing some final fixes later this evening so there should be a new auto-release built.

We got one at the start; that’s indeed how it even exists.

Hello, with the problems we may encounter with KILN, I wanted to know where you are in your development? It would be really great if we could have a second piece of software with GUIs for newbie bakers. Especially if this one is more stable than the previous one.

You can download the latest release from github and start testing it out. It is hard-coded right now to the granadanet test network so you’ll need to use the faucet to get some test tokens and create a baker.

> We are happy to announce the release of our public beta for [Bakin’Bacon](https://bakinbacon.io/) v0.6. You can download precompiled binaries for linux, MacOS, and Windows from our [github releases page](https://github.com/bakingbacon/bakinbacon/releases). BB has been rigorously tested on Grandanet for the past 3 months in stable condition; stable enough for us to comfortably announce a public release. One difficult task in testing on Tezos test nets is using the faucet to get testing tokens. This requires some linux command-line skills and basic knowledge of Tezos to act…

How do you add test money from faucets?
All the instructions I’ve been able to find require running a node locally, and bakinbacon uses remote nodes?

Correct. There is no requirement to run your own local node when using BakinBacon. If you want to add test funds the hard way, you need to use the tezos-client tool to import a wallet from the faucet. Another way is to give me your testing tz1 and I’ll send you some funds.
