 It is important that only recipe maintainers have write permissions to the repository. As it currently stands, every member of the [Co-operators Team](https://git.coopcloud.tech/org/coop-cloud/teams/co-operators) has write permissions to all recipe repositories for convenience while we are missing enough maintainers.
 
-To change this, create a new team on [`git.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud/teams`](https://git.coopcloud.tech/org/coop-cloud/teams) for your specific recipe, e.g. `mycoolrecipe-maintainers`. Add yourself and any other maintainers and don't forget to add the recipe repository itself on the repositories tab. Remove your recipe repository from the [list of repositories for the Co-operators Team](https://git.coopcloud.tech/org/coop-cloud/teams/co-operators/repositories) so that write permissions are removed.
+To change this:
+
+1. Log into git.coopcloud.tech as an administrator account (e.g. `coopcloud`)
+2. Create a new team on [`git.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud/teams`](https://git.coopcloud.tech/org/coop-cloud/teams) with the following settings:
+
+    - Name: e.g. `mycoolrecipe-maintainers`
+    - Repository access: Specific repositories
