This is that seven minute score on my little baby yeast water loaf.

First time trying a stiff starter also maybe my 6th or 7th loaf. Having a hard time getting the bulk fermentation correct and my scoring. It’s over proofed but it tastes good lol. I’m going to keep trying.

Yeast water day 5. Still not much to report. It’s going to 85 here today… maybe that will help…patience 😁

Bulk fermentation does not happen in the refrigerator. I’ll say it again for the folks in the back. What you’re doing when you put your dough in the fridge overnight is a cold retard. That’s not the same thing as bulk fermentation. Two different stages, two different jobs, two very different outcomes. Most bakers have been told these are interchangeable. They’re not. And once you understand the difference, your bread changes. I’m putting the full piece together now. Watch for it. ~ Henry ⭐🔥
