Follow-up from this morningโ€™s sourdough geek-outโ€ฆ and Iโ€™m already noticing a difference.

Today at shaping, the dough feels quite a bit stronger and more structured. Itโ€™s not nearly as loose, overly bubbly, or almost out-of-control lively as it has been.

Obviously, the real test will be the crumb after baking, but so far this feels promising. ๐Ÿ‘€

Calling all sourdough geeks. ๐Ÿค“

Iโ€™m making a few adjustments today to try to eliminate those giant, gaping holes in my crumb that have been happening since Julyโ€” tweaking the mix time, watching dough strength, extra folds, bringing bassinage back into the process, and seeing what changes.

Come geek out with me while I troubleshoot my bread in real time. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿž

I degassed the hell out of it. My pH monitor assured me we were most definitely NOT underfermented. And yetโ€ฆ here we are again. ๐Ÿ˜‚

At this point Iโ€™ve stopped trying to explain the crumb and started asking more important questions.

Is this where all my missing socks have been going? ๐Ÿงฆ
