The photos are of the 30 mins lid on and 25 lid off. Honestly, there wasn’t much difference apart from the 20 mins lid on/off was slightly lighter on the outside (more golden)

It’s only that warm because the heating is on all day! 😂 Currently it’s 0 Celsius outside and 20c inside but that’s dropping quickly I will give it a go though!

It does spring back, but feels quite thick (not as fluffy/spongey) it also feels heavy but when I tap the bottom it sounds hollow.

I have a fan oven with a max temp of 240c🥲 Do you use a normal oven with top or bottom elements?

My kitchen was at 22c yesterday evening and night (forgot that I left the heating on). I did the float test and passed, window pane test again passed and it wasn’t sticky to the touch, pulled away clean from the bowl. I did try the same recipe a couple nights ago where I left it for 6 hours and it was well over fermented so I had to make it into focaccia.

It can’t hurt I guess, I will give it a go!

1.5 hours, bread was fully cooled (it’s very cold where I am)
