Bread - What are you baking today…..

That'll do
Indeed it will. And I now know that the equipment I have will allow me to make bigger batches without it taking meaningfully longer time. Three loaf doughs are no problem, and there is probably room for a four loaf dough too.
EDIT: in other news, I’ve been smoking trout today. Coming to a thread near you soon.

50% Poolish with 50% white and 50% spelt flours…
I would pay good money for that bread if I saw it in a bakery

Indeed. All the above look delicious. I really like the look of the batons.
I’m considering going back to baking seam side down and scoring. I’ve embraced the Forkish look and going seam side up to get the random rustic explosions. And while it looks great I fancy a change.
After the week I’ve had I was sceptical about doing any weekend baking but routine came to the rescue and last night dough mixing and this mornings bake were quite theraputic. A double batch of country blonde was the result:

Not bread, but classic cinnamon rolls. I’ve never had such luck with my rising today. I must have actually kneaded enough this time. A good 8 minutes with the kitchen aid.
Anyway here are some pics of the rising and the crumb at the end.

Me too, but seeing all of the bread here makes me want to bust out the dutch oven and make a couple of boules!

Sort of same, same…. 50% Poolish, 50% white/50% spelt
But I screwed up either the amount of water (too much) or amount of flour (too little) that I added to the final mix. The hydration was far too high, so I bunged in fistfuls of dark rye until I got the hydration to sort of where it should have been.....

Lovely bread anyway… and the rye will add a nice taste. The Greeny seems to do a great job!
