    I completely agree with the 3 day opinion. I did something similar about a year ago. I made my normal pizza dough and made 6 individual dough balls. i made a personal pizza each night for 6 days. It was neat to see the results. for the 1st 3 days, each night the crust got better and better (tasting and texture), then by the 4th day, it was like the dough had 'peaked' in quality and wasnt getting any better. buy the last day, the pizza was meh.

      i would love too see this experiment too. yeast goes dormant when cold proofing, but other enzymes in the sourdough do not. eventually the dough enters proteolysis from that enzymatic activity, and cannibalizes the gluten. a few days in the fridge the longest you can ferment before this happens: a 30 day sourdough pizza would probably be like an extremely tangy soup.

  • @Schill88
    @Schill88 6 місяців тому +1

    When fermenting for longer then 24h you should ad some type of sweetness to the dough. It will give the yeast extra nutrients so it will live longer and ferment more. When using an average protein grade flour yeast will "eat" up most of the suger and starch within 24-36h and then enter hibernation again. Give the yeast more nutrients like starch and suger it will be able to ferment for much longer and thous increase flavour. Like sourdough does.
    Then when you ferment for long periods you might need to "wake up" the dough again, in other words you need to re knead it, and ad more flour and liquid to recreate the gluten strings. It will give you an much more airer and easier to chew.

      Love the series. One possible idea if you ever wanted to take this experiment to the next level would be to try to normalize the amount of actual fermentation taking place by measuring the PH of the fermenting dough. It wouldn't be perfect but this kind of experiment is tough to normalize across variables.

    I had an issue with scale limitations, and I didn't have time to get a more precise one.
    Instead, I got a straw, sealed it off on one end, filled it up with an amount I could measure (1 gram...yeah I know it's not perfect), then measured the distance ratio to get me the amount I needed on the straw and cut it (say I needed 100 mg, and the filled up length was 100 mm...I could cut the straw to 100 mg / 1000 mg * 100 mm = 10 mm)
    It worked for what I needed to do, and I have a more repeatable "straw scooper."

    I found out that this recipe that I mistakenly wrote down was excellent for a cast iron “pan” pizza. I accidentally wrote it down to a 74% hydration dough with 8g of yeast (and other ingredients) with a 2 day fermentation made a great pizza. I spread it on the pan with plenty of olive oil and it comes out with this amazing golden brown exterior but with a cake like appearance from the rise despite having a ton of liquid from the toppings. And it holds everything without breaking a sweat. Then one day when I wanted pizza, I knew that I hadn’t made the dough 2 days before as this was an impulse craving. I quickly whipped up the same dough exactly the same at just past 7am and left it out at room temp. Later at 1pm I prepared the toppings and pan and by 2pm the pizza was in the oven. I was expecting a less flavorful bread but to my surprise it had the same taste as a 2 day fermentation if not better! I know prep my dough 6hrs before I want to have pizza. Plenty of time to decide and cook (if necessary) my toppings!

    I wonder if the longer fermentations are losing more water than the shorter. I know the container is sealed, but you can still lose water to container sides and dough surface that can evaporate when opening or if there’s not a super tight seal. This might be what’s giving the harder bottoms, the tearing, and chew.

    One of the prevailing theories regarding the origin of the micro bubbles is that it comes from malted flour. It has been observed by some that untreated flour, such as Italian “0” or “00”, does not produce a dough that bakes up with those micro bubbles.

    the yeast was smothered by carbon dioxide. try using an airlock. you'll have to drill a hole into the lid to allow for the lock and rubber grommet. it'll allow gas to escape while preventing contaminants in, keeping the yeast alive. you can easily find them at home brew shops. probably help to add more sugar for the yeast to feed on as well.

    • @nitailevi8001
      @nitailevi8001 7 місяців тому +1

      The way I see it, the whole point of the experiment is to match the yeast amount to the fermentation period, to see if fermenting for longer is worth it (by using an amount of yeast so it doesn't over ferment). Seeing what happens if you forget the dough is just a different experiment.
      Though it seems the amounts of yeast weren't really matched that well for that either.

    • @CharlieAndersonCooking
      @CharlieAndersonCooking  7 місяців тому +4

      Exactly, that would be a different experiment. For this one, the point was to try to successfully ferment dough for different periods of time, and you need to vary the amounts of yeast in order to make that work. While I don’t think the amounts of yeast I used were perfect, I think they were pretty good since all of the doughs ended up rising about the same amount. Like I said though, if I were to do it again, I would probably test it with a long bulk fermentation next time rather than a long balled fermentation.

    I know that 72 hours is a sweet spot. I made the best pizza of my life, not using 00 flour, but “all-purpose flour “, and I let it ferment for about 60-65 hours, put it into a 525 F oven, on a pre-heated pizza steel, pre-heated for an hour and it swelled up and rose, giving me perfect marbling, while still giving me a soft, airy crust, that was easy to chew and easy to digest. It was the best pizza. Of course, not a lot of yeast that is sold is actually working yeast, the fresh stuff gets sold to the restaurants, like the best cuts of meat, they want their restaurants to make big money with big taxes paid. The government leaders are literally fraudulent scammers, cheating the public. Let Trudeau & Biden use the yeast that doesn’t work, grow your own and keep it for yourself.

    The 30 day dough was definitely not only over fermented but way past that. 30 day dough wouldn't really have any benefits regardless, but it's worth trying to match the yeast to the fermentation period.
    Also for taste, fermenting in room temperature (which also varies obviously) develops taste differently than in the fridge. It's not just the fermentation itself, other things are happening that cause the dough to develop differently in different temperatures. It's worth trying a long(ish) room temperature dough e.g. about 24 hours. For a random example of 20C and 24 hours you'd need approx 0.03% of yeast. Just a couple of degrees more 22C and it's drastically less yeast (about 0.022%, about a 30% difference, so it's important to really dial in that amount). I used to think fermenting for longer (say up to around 2-3 days) is "better" and I used the fridge, but was surprised by the results of a "faster" room temp dough. For a base comparison you can try a 24 hour dough, one in the fridge, one in room temp (assuming you are not in Antartica and your room temp is around 18C-25C, and adjust yeast % for the specific temp.. which can also vary throughout the day/night anyway so there's always some adjustment to exact fermentation time).

    • @CharlieAndersonCooking
      @CharlieAndersonCooking  7 місяців тому +5

      I really don’t think it was over fermented because it didn’t rise much (or at all) when it was in the cooler. There weren’t any signs of fermentation during that time, but then when I removed it for that last 24 hours and re-balled it, it rose pretty significantly. It almost just seemed to halt the fermentation entirely, I guess because of the small quantity of yeast.
      I’ve played around with room temperature doughs in the past (not in videos, just personally) and haven’t loved the results but it may be worth trying again! One big problem I had with them is that I can’t go as high with the hydration because room temp doughs tend to be a lot stickier and harder to handle.

      As far as RT, statistically I've found by far most prefer that flavour. Even after 20 hours it can have as much or more flavour than 2-3 day CF dough. Though it's entirely possible you'd prefer the CF taste. Most use long CF to get more taste and not a specific type of taste.
