@Giles:

Bulk fermentation completed:

Ready to divide:

Shaped:

As I have mentioned to @Chap before.  I do not knead (nor do I use a machine to mix), the Ken Forkish method eschews kneading.  He teaches the pincer method combined with folding.  And because kneading bores me rigid, I like him…...

Need bores me rigid too 

[Chap]

Very nice @Matty123 they look tasty, I guess you are very happy with the result

This is my Weight Watcher bread…

It‘s my Wheat starter I have reactivated right now for a Mediterranean Bread with Olive Oil I am planning to bake tomorrow

[Giles]

At last, my Levain is active…..

Rather than discard any when I fed it, I made some spring onion bready pancakes with the excess levain….

I did an American style Whole wheat bread the other day.

I also ordered the book that @Giles recommended.

My starter is getting hyperactive

[Giles]

Mine too, it overfilled my 1 litre container so had to transfer it to a jug …..

Think I have a 2 Kilo Kilner in the shed….

Today/tomorrow, I am making Pain De Campagne, it is made with a hybrid leavening dough; 360gms Levain and 2gms dried yeast with 740 gms white flour and 60 gms Spelt (the recipe calls for wholewheat, but I used all of that up building my Levain

[Chap]

Post the recipe and lets do it synchronous

[Giles]

Too late sorry, I started at 08:00 this morning….., I am on the 2nd fold now...

But here goes:

[Chap]

OK… however thanks for sharing. Autolyse dough mixed

And bringing up the rear… my starter got started at 10am this morning....

[Chap]

That mixing by hand is something ahem… special. Slime anyone?
