This batch was:

500g water
75g fresh milled rye flour
675g unbleached flour
15g salt
200g ripe levain

For 2 loaves

Next time I’m gonna let the bulk ferment go longer but I like this lower hydration for the flour I use.

  1. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a better done loaf – certainly none of mine.

    It’s perfection. Proofing right on point!

    Hi! This is a beautiful loaf! It does look slightly under proofed just based on the crumb, but a gorgeous rise and “belly” and ear ☺️ great work!

    I’d agree with your under proofed assessment, but only by a smidge, it was close. The way it bursts out in the center of the cut is the main clue here.

    But honestly it’s a good loaf of bread. Many bakeries sell worse. Fresh milled rye is a nice touch.

    Happy baking.

    Maybe the score was a little too deep? But I agree with the rest of the comments, it looks great 👍🏼
