Second loaf
Baker’s percentages
Same baker’s percentages but didn’t have enough bread flour so used some rye.
Actual measurements
- 450g bread flour, 150g rye flour, 150 AP flour
- 580g water
- 150g starter
- 15g salt
- 1 heaping tsp active yeast
Instructions
Same as above, but added yeast to starter because it wasn’t as active as last time.
Results
Way overproofed during overnight retardation, and didn’t get as thick and crunchy a crust. Was a bit more tangy (in a good way) and denser which rye flour can do both of.
