@Giles:

Yes, I was a little heavy-handed with the yeast in the Biga…

Looks like that is no bad thing…

Thanks Reuben x 2

80% Biga with the @neph93 pre-shaping procedure

[neph93]

Haha… it isn’t mine I promise you. There are hundreds of YT videos on it [emoji6] Did you notice any appreciable difference? The cross-section of yours is beautiful btw.

To be honest no significant difference  but I think it might make sence with a very soft dough being difficult to get a good shaping. I used Pizza flour yesterday as the other half of the dough will become Pizza today, doughs with that flour are easy to shape and have a nice tension.

Interesting, as I noticed that my 100% milled white wheat dough, which is quite sloppy, benefitted more than my country brown (about 60/40 wholewheat). The whole wheat is much more robust.

humidity, temperature, etc. Different enviroment up there near the North Pole  :P. My winter dough is a lot different to work with then my summer dough was… ATM I have 14 hours Biga proofing time at 19 C.

Japanese Milk Bread….

@Chap that entire set of pics is amazing. Is your stove retro design, or an older model?

@Giles how do you use that bread? I bet it would make a great French toast.
