    I love the overnight method! Just reduce the levain amount so you can mix it after dinner/kitchen cleanup, and do only 1-2 stretch and folds. You can make 2-3 loaves on Friday or Saturday evening and freeze the one or 2 after the 20 initial bake rather than continue baking it after the lid removal. Cool before freezing. To use it, thaw overnight and finish baking in the morning for fresh baked anytime!!

    The Sourdough Brothers from The International Institute For The Advancement Of Sourdough Science&Research struck gold once again!
    The entertainment and production value of this very educational video is just amazing! I stopped baking a while ago even though that i work remotely at my house most of the time. Because stopping whatever i'm doing and going to the kitchen every hour for coil&folds has started to become very distracting for my work. This method which i tried and failed in my own very unscientific ways and very inconsistent results might be my signal to get back in to the game and stop going down to the corner store to buy a loaf of bread. Thank you Tom of Cleveland, OH and Rob of Burbank, CA!

    • @thesourdoughjourney

      Thank you! You should give it a try. It takes a few tries to get it exactly dialed in for your starter strength. But once you figure it out, it is so easily repeatable. And quite flexible, with the long stints in the refrigerator. You can miss the timing by hours and it still works.

    Heh, it'll be interesting to see how my lazy-butt sourdough method measures up to yours, the refrigerator is my best friend. Keep starter in the fridge, feed the night before starting a loaf, start the loaf and do stretch and folds every half hour while I'm doing something else at home, then shove it in the fridge.... then pull it out, make loaves (I don't bother with preshaping, just use the batarde roll technique you use, if it's a bit flat after 5 min I do it again), put it back... bake whenever... I don't fermentalyse or autolyse, found it made very little difference whether I did or just put everything all in together at once. And technically, it doesn't seem to matter that much whether I do two or five stretch folds, it builds strength in the fridge just fine. Also, for my setup (pizza stone and a roasting pan) once the oven's to heat (about fifteen minutes), I'm good to go, none of this bs of preheating my oven for 45 minutes.
    I do two 500g loaves per batch, then bake the second one covered for my entire cooking time then once it's cooled it goes in a bag in the fridge and when we're ready for it, 15 min in the oven crisps it back up and it's good to go, I've had one in the fridge over a week and after the 15 min crisp up, you can't tell it from a fresh baked loaf except sometimes the ear falls down a little. Our loaf on the go lives on the cutting board and is good for at least 4 days standing up on the cut end.
    Also, your video was so hilarious that I've forwarded the link to two friends, one of whom doesn't even bake.

    • @thesourdoughjourney
      @thesourdoughjourney  10 місяців тому +3

      Thank you for the details. You’ve really cut out lots of unnecessary steps. It sounds a bit like the “2-stage Bulk Fermentation” method,I covered in a previous video. But even simpler. Good job. I also like the “refresh” method for the refrigerated baked loaf. Good job.

    • @bunhelsingslegacy3549
      @bunhelsingslegacy3549 10 місяців тому +2

      @@thesourdoughjourney The refresh methold is great, learned that one from The Bread Code! I'm now at the point where unless I manage to leave my bulk ferment out on the counter instead of refrigerating it overnight, I'm getting very consistent tall loaves, and the dough tells me within about five minutes if it needs to be preshaped or just shaped, and if I have way overfermented something, it's still great pizza dough or English Muffins. But I definitely have your 72 hour refrigeration video to thank for developing my current lazy-butt methods. For me, the refrigerator really is my best friend. I'll even feed up my starters, let them get started, then refrigerate them, then as long as it's within a couple of days, the starter is ready to go right out of the fridge, I just use warmer water to wake it up.

      ​@@bunhelsingslegacy3549Sounds like a great option to have fresh sourdough bread on working days. I'll try that next weekend.

    • @bunhelsingslegacy3549
      @bunhelsingslegacy3549 9 місяців тому +1

      @@KS-ou6du The loaf that bakes covered is usually kinda blonde and the uncovered one is medium to dark brown depending on how my oven feels that day. I find that covered loaf can be stored over a week in the fridge but once it's had fifteen min at 450 to crisp up again, is just like the first loaf that baked with the second half of the bake uncovered in both appearance and texture, though it might maybe dry out a day earlier than the original loaf, which is usually good for up to five days depending on ambient conditions (it'll get fuzzy if we don't finish it faster when it's hot and humid), we just stand it up on the cutting board on its cut side, the crust seals the air out for the most part.
      Leaving the loaf in a bag makes it not be a crusty loaf anymore, though at that point it does make better sandwich bread, my crusts tend to be pretty robust and being bagged in plastic redistributes the moisture throughout the loaf and softens the crust, and I suspect that if I didn't crisp it up before ptting it out on the cutting board, the whole thing might dry out. though I haven't proven this, the crust might just dry out first and keep the rest of the loaf moist. Keeping it in a bag and not in the frigde, it will definitely mold over more quickly than the loaf we leave on the cutting board.

    • @thesourdoughjourney

      A small amount will darken the crust and give it a little more carmlized flavor. It also slightly speeds fermentation. It’s already included in many brands of bread flour.

    2 questions
    - how much do u feed ur starter and for how many hours before using it (assuming temperature 70 in the house)
    - how do u take care of ur starter. How often do u feed it and how much?
    Thank u in advance

      I generally do a 1:10:10 feeding of my starter the night before to create the amount I need for baking the next morning. The high feeding ratio slows down the rise so it generally peaks the next morning. If I’m baking midday, I may do a 1:5:5 feeding.
      When creating a leaven for baking I always try to do a higher feeding ratio to knock down the acidity.
      For daily maintenance, I generally do a 1:2:2 feeding.

    Hello Terrific Tom!! I need some clarification please. After my oven is preheated can I take the dough out of the refrigerator and immediately put it in the oven, or do I let it come to room temperature (what "room temp" is preferred?) or do I let it sit out just the amount of time it takes my oven to preheat - which is usually 30 minutes? Thank you so much :)

    I tried this method during my 3 day stretch of 12 hour night shifts. Started with mixing dough Wed morning, shaped Wed night after approx 8hrs bulk ferment on counter. Placed in fridge until Sat morning (approx 60 hrs cold ferment) and it is my most gorgeous loaf yet! So soft, beautiful color, beautiful blisters, and perfect texture and crumb. I love this method! Thanks Tom & Bob!

  • @crocodile2501
    @crocodile2501 Місяць тому +1

    I finally got a strong starter to use and want to make small bread rolls that I can just throw in the oven on the weekends to warm up a little and tell myself that they are fresh. Last time they turned out a bit dense because I didn’t know how to shape them, but I’m guessing this folding technique could work quite well. The problem now is just how I should store them in the fridge to cold ferment without them losing their shape. Any ideas?

    • @thesourdoughjourney
      @thesourdoughjourney  Місяць тому

      You can store them for a few days in mini loaf pans. I prefer baking and freezing them. Then just heating them up in the toaster oven. Spritz them with water and bake in oven for about 15 min.
      You can also par bake them (not fully brown), freeze then bake.
      They’ll keep fermenting in the fridge so they don’t keep more than about 3-4 days.

    Dear sir, your video is truly wonderful, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I’ve been following your sourdough journey, especially the guide on creating a sourdough starter. The step-by-step approach in your video caught my attention, making me eager to delve deeper into the intricate process of crafting sourdough bread.
    “I would like to confirm the recommended baking settings: should I use the fan setting or not, and is it advisable to use a water pan to create steam in the oven? Your guidance is appreciated.
    🙏🙏

    • @thesourdoughjourney

      Thank you. For Dutch oven baking you don’t want to use the fan or steam. For open baking use steam for 20 minutes and no fan.

    Thank you so much for answering my question re if Chad R did experiments or just fell into what works and stayed with it. I'm just an inquisitive one. Another question I have is about All Purpose Flour. Wondering if you've tested whether APF doesn't have the same oven spring as baking sourdough bread with bread flour? If you've addressed it in one of your videos, you can refer me to which one so not to have to repeat yourself. Thanks!

    • @thesourdoughjourney
      @thesourdoughjourney  2 місяці тому

      The only AP flour I would use for sourdough is the Costco organic AP, which is actually a high quality bread flour from Central Milling (private labeled for Costco). In all other cases I recommend a higher protein bread flour.

    Hey Tom! I created & used starter by following your video (2.5 wks old). Starter was being fed 1:2:2 and peaked in 10 hours. I followed as you and Bob did in the video and my starter did not dissolve, however when I did all the slap and folds, it appeared to have the consistency/feel/look as you mention in the video. Any clue why my starter didn't dissolve? Is it normal?

    • @thesourdoughjourney
      @thesourdoughjourney  2 місяці тому

      Sometimes it happens when you add the starter and salt at the same time. Next time try dissolving the starter in the water before adding the salt.

  • @mattparadisi7016
    @mattparadisi7016 7 місяців тому +1

    Tom, I wanted to reach out and compliment you. I’ve just recently taken the “plunge” into the evidently complex and wonderful world of sourdough.
    I feel like a lot of intellectuals get into baking sourdough because it feels both like a challenge, given the inherent complexity, and also offers the promise of “true” or “natural” bread-one of the simplest and most comprehensible yearnings we have as human beings.
    But your preaching on the susceptibility of new bakers to “hubris” is both 100% correct, and has absolutely changed the way I look at the process. The trouble is that, as far as I can tell as a newbie baker, good sourdough bread is very, VERY difficult to achieve, and requires a legitimate and dedicated effort on the baker’s part. It’s not something that can just be effortlessly replicated.
    When I first started watching your videos, I almost felt offended by how accurate you were in describing the shortfalls of a new sourdough baker-I literally gasped when you began describing how we tend to “see what we want to see” when we’re looking for a particular percentage rise, or we think we see enough activity in our starter or levain. Yep-we lie to ourselves, because we don’t want to admit that we let our schedule take precedence over our starter strength, or our dough’s health. Today, for the first time, I felt like I had a dough that hit every benchmark of a good dough every step of the way. (I’m a newbie baker, about 20-30 loaves in.) Fingers are crossed, and I’m hoping to have a couple of good loaves tomorrow.
    Thank you for the content, and the depth involved in it.
