Thread: Who bakes bread?

Still Hot !!.....Iam taking it to the next level...lol

Wish I had smell-o-vision installed on my computer. Those are beautiful loaves. You are becoming quite the pro baker.

Nice markings, great looking loaves!
Day 1 of my sourdough journey starts today.

Hope to be baking my first loaf next weekend for my wife’s birthday celebration.
Cheers gents.

It don't matter how you spell it. I'll grab the olive oil and be right over.

Made some bread today....love this stuff.

Great looking crust and just mmm.

My starter is already starting, end of day 2!

Used some whole wheat flour to start, might have helped.
Time to put the lid on!

Yep whole wheat or whole grain definitely helps the starter, more protein available. Don't forget to feed the starter every few days if you don't use it.

I read, after the initial week build, if you put it in the fridge after use you don’t need to feed it for up to 7 days. Then the night before you want to bake you bring it out to warm, add equal fuel to current weight and next day good to bake again.
I hope it’s that easy cause I see me being a weekend loafer.

That works for me. This is after the last feeding at room temp, then allowed to digest for an hour and then put in the frig--



I use a rubber band to keep track of how much the starter rises.

I fed then refrigerated my starter last Monday--

Made a special delivery today...in my 67 GTO
