@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….

[jordanscollected]

@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.

After waiting two weeks for the starter I made my first sourdough.

[neph93]

Boom! Well done sir. Looks a hell of a lot better than my first effort.

[Gammaman]

Thanks it taste so nice

[Stuart.T]

@Gammaman that looks good dude. I've not baked for about 4 months now, and decided I would this week. Started a malted starter last Sunday and baked my first Malted sourdough with it today chuffed with the results. It's about my 6th loaf ever if I recall.

I've given up on the YouTube videos and recipes. I pretty much stick flour, water, starter, and salt in the bowl until the dough consistency is about what it should be. I guess my great grandparents didn't have YouTube channels to depend on, just the spinster up the road dolling out advice

[neph93]

Looks very nice @Stuart.T.

After a few weeks of beefing up the fibre post Xmas I did my variation on the all white Forkish warm spot double levain. 2x batons and 2x boules.

In an interruption to our normal service I baked M&M buns with the little guys today…
