            Trying to decide what looks better, the wine or bread...... The bread looks great.

                @Giles very nice. We’ve established there’s wine on the right, but what’s on the left?

                      Thank you. Took me a few attempts to dial it in. But I think I've got it now.

                      The Danish Rye Bred that I am doing for the first time though, is a completely different story. The recipe was American so used the antediluvian measuring system of cups (what the fuck is a cup, you ask), I ballsed up my conversions to gms, so the dough was so wrong, it could not have been worse. I've chucked a pint of beer into it and that has got it a texture I am assuming is correct, it is now quietly fermenting in a corner. Whether I have managed to rescue it or not remains to be seen....
