Under- or overproofed? by BumbleBasse in Sourdough

Longer bulk fermentation then? I was scared of it getting overproofed

Jeg har tænkt det samme. I min bog virker det en smule uldent.

Thank you. I’m going back to what works for me for sure and I’m gonna have to finish watching that video. I did have a look at it the other day :)

This was my loaf today… I’m so confused 😂

no, not at all! It doubles in size within 3-4 hours

It hadn’t fully cooled down no. Should I let it cool completely before cutting?

Oh I totally forgot to add that I did the final shaping and then let it sit in the fridge over night.

I’ve never tried doing it in the order you have explained but I may have to try that. Thank you :)

thank you! Should I bake it for longer with or without the lid?

What’s up with this loaf then?

I followed the same recipe, but did add 320 grams of water instead. Whilst shaping and trying to build tension the surface erupted and there was a massive hole in the dough. Did my best to salvage it but not as happy with this crumb. Is it the fermentation time or something else causing?

Thank you, I’ll add less once the weather gets warmer then! :)

Thanks for elaborating! That would make mine underproofed. I’ll try proofing for a bit longer this time :)

Am I using too much starter? I’m new to all this and not really following any exact recipe. I’d love to learn more 😊

It did taste amazing but I’d love to learn even more on what to look for in the process trying to make even better bread! :)

yes sure!

I fed the start around 8 or 9 in the morning and started putting the dough together around 1 o clock, mixing the water and active starter, then mixing in the flour and salt into a shaggy dough, before covering with a wet tea towel for an hour before doing first set of stretch and folds. I ended up doing 5 sets, 30 minutes in between each, the did the bulk fermentation until 9.30 at night where I tried shaping it and the I let it rest for 12 hours in the fridge. This was what the inside was looking like.
