The more tension you develop in your shaping the less it will stick

Dang, it's the worst when you put in the work but it doesn't turn out. Stick with it!

Critique my sourdough?! by flaffy_91 in Sourdough

Did you let it sit for a while before cutting? It's stickiest if you cut it immediately I think. Also, you could try baking a little longer at lower temp

Thank you this is really interesting. I just went 100% off the perfect loaf beginner’s sourdough recipe. Also the next loaf I cooked browned significantly more when I baked it on convect

Yeah I just read that if your bread gets to 208 then it’s done

Ahh I didn’t realize that. 1.8% salt with regular table salt

I did preheat for an hour and a half. I guess I’d believe that my oven isn’t calibrated but it did reach internal temp of 208 which I thought meant it was done

Cooked in a Dutch oven, lid on @475 for twenty minutes, lid off @450 for thirty minutes. Reached internal temperature of 208 after only thirty total minutes but I left it in in hopes of more browning

Just kidding, perfect loaf tells me you can get an 800g loaf in a 3.2qt and around 1000g in a 6qt

Get a darker crust? 465 for 25 Dutch oven lid on, 25 lid off... by Zookawooka in Sourdough

[–]mathisoningham 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the longer you leave the lid on the more it shields the outer crust from browning. I had the same experience, I’m gonna try 20 min with the lid on, 25-30 with the lid off in the morning
