    I must admit that after watching many of Phil's videos, I always give my container lid a double tap. Apparently, this is an important step in making great dough.

    I love this, I've been baking sourdough since just before lock down in 2020 after being gifted a starter. It took me about 2 years of experimentation with different hydration and mix of flours to get to were I can produce a fairly consistent 80% whole wheat sandwich loaf, and even now depending on the time of year and the temperature I have to tweak it to take into account local variations when baking. Even during those early weeks I always managed to produce an edible loaf, not always perfect sometimes a little dense but it tasted good and could be used for toast or bread crumbs if not a sandwich lol. That's why I like your channel you say it like it is, not try to sell people an ideal. Folk have been baking sourdough for most of the several thousand years we have eaten leavened bread, way before we had all the modern equipment we have today, and I'm sure they didn't always get it perfect.

    Vow, very detail baking journal, I will switch mine to your format. The Calculator/Dough Temp is very helpful. Dough turned out exactly 25C after mixing, I managed to maintain that temp by placing it in a Thermal cooker during the proofing process. Happy New year and enjoy some family time away from the test kitchen! 😄

    You are incredible! Thank you so much for creating and sharing the calculator for subscribers who are interested. I did sign up for your email newsletter too. I am a new baker and I am binge watching several UA-camrs ,but I am really enjoying your simplicity (as much as one can for the science of it) and also encouragement for us to go ahead and take risks to figure out our own starters and doughs. I would like you to make a cheesy sour dough with hard cheese such as Swiss or preferably Grueyre.

    That calculator looks useful! So far I've baked several 100% whole wheat loaves without any trouble, maybe it's the type of flour I have but they really don't seem any more tricky than a white loaf.

    I forgot to request a loaf of all wheat such as Einkorn. I need to figure out the all wheat flours with the hydration needs and how to make it a little more "delicate" and not so dense. Maybe add honey for flavor. I have a buttermilk/Greek yogurt starter that I made and it is awesome.

  • @theS3VN

    I really enjoy these kinds of videos, as they are very helpful for people struggling to get the right loaf, so thank you very much. It would be interesting to see you develop a new recipe using spelt flour, instead of a strong white flour. Keep up the good work!

    • @WheresBillie104
      @WheresBillie104 Рік тому

      Spelt is awesome. My standard loaf is 450g white and 50g spelt. It’s technically a whole wheat flour. Don’t know how an all spelt loaf would work. Or what would be a manageable hydration

    I think many of us “home bakers” would benefit from a video explaining how to read the “nose” of our starters and leavens. I’m still not confident in this regard and can use a deep dive just an idea.

    Thank you for the sourdough tips & encouragement. So far I have developed a very nice 75% fresh milled hard red/durum wheat artisan loaf that has become my weekly standard. I have also finally successfully converted my great grams restaurant commercial yeast cinnamon roll recipe over to sourdough. #upforthechallenge

    1. I love looking at you because you look sooo much like a great school friend I had that I won’t see again.
    2. A question please: how do you manage to have the bottom of your loaf unburnt? I put mine on a good Italian stone & its far enough from the heating element but by the time it’s done the bottom is toasted. Much appreciated

    Great videos, huge fan of you! As I am also based in Athens, Greece, I was wondering if you ever had tried to use einkorn flour. I have found a local organic producer that his einkorn flour has high protein content (21,57%). Do you think is going to work?

  • @davidpipkin9568
    @davidpipkin9568 Рік тому

    Of course it would be great to see your process, I would like to know more about the flours used, I see you have 2 mills, would love to see how us use them,. I have a Mock Mill and always add some % fresh milled flour sifted with a 40 mesh screen, I add boiling water at120% of the bran weight, soak for an hour or so then add back to the dough about the 2nd hour after the initial mix.

  • @chrisjeffers7300
    @chrisjeffers7300 Рік тому +1

    I would like to see the most Whole Wheat content you can make, I started with 50% and I and hit or miss so maybe I should start lower and increase as you say

    • @speakingconstitution
      @speakingconstitution Рік тому +3

      Last March I started out using 25% whole wheat, mastered that then increased to 40%, mastered that, went for 50%, mastered & now I am using a 75% fresh milled whole wheat recipe that I have now mastered. Be patient & enjoy the process and remember, it may not look good at first but ultimately steely it’s the taste we’re going after, so take pleasure in eating all those testing samples.

    I've been using your 400g flour/ 260g water SD recipe with great results.
    However, I was inspired to add a tangzhong component to the recipe which for me improved the crumb and the keeping qualities.
    As a result, I had to back off the water from 260g down to 200g, taking into account the tangzhong (25g flour in 100g water).
    Now I'm not sure how to use your SD Calculator (current or new version).
    Ideas?

    I have been baking for a while now using sourdough and a sponge. The issue I have is that while baking there is a bad odor coming from the oven and my wife can't take the smell. When I'm baking without sourdough and sponge there is no such smell hence it is the sourdough and sponge. Am I doing something wrong?
