A photo of a mug of coffee, ostensibly a flat white but it has dark chocolate hot chocolate mix sprinkled on top of the milk foam.

I feel like I haven't mentioned enough how much I'm enjoying this coffee grinder and espresso machine.

Two round golden loaves of bread sitting on a cooling rack.

Oooooooops, apparently I put the second loaf into the proofing basket upside down. Or into the Dutch oven upside down, one of the two. Anyway, I have one fantastic-looking loaf and one very flat and weirdly-smooth one.

Two round golden loaves of bread with flour on top of them, sitting on a cooling rack.

Oh hell yes, the proofing baskets really did make a difference! Feast your eyes on these beauties.

Two round but also flat loaves of bread sitting on a cooling rack.

Moar bread! This is the 75% whole wheat bread, and it's unfortunately very flat. The four hours of bulk fermentation was too much, I think. I'm sure it'll still be delicious though.

A photo of two golden round loaves of white bread sitting on a cooling rack.

Another weekend, another batch of bread! I did the overnight white bread recipe again but am slowly tuning the timings for our Australian climate. I'll be interested to see if it's as full of holes as last time, since it was only rising for about 9 hours versus the 12-14 the recipe says.

A very small fluffy brown dog sitting looking at the camera.

Office dog! It's been a while. This is Obi and he's a tiny Cavoodle!

A glass bowl with a very goopy-looking mixture of flour, water, and a tiny amount of yeast.

The same glass bowl with the same goopy mixture, except the mixture is about three times the volume and is covered in tiny bubbles.

Two delicious round golden-brown loaves of bread sitting on a cooling rack.

A couple of dozen slices of white bread sitting on cooling racks, and a big cutting board and large bread knife where the loaves were cut. The bread has lots of small holes in it and looks delicious.

This is a before and after of the poolish, plus the resulting loaves and the sliced bread. I was expecting even more sourdoughiness from this, but instead it's a lot more like white bread-stick bread, and doesn't have the sourdough chewiness or flavour like the other recipes I've done. Still delicious, of course, but I might stick with the other recipe for my bread, at least until I get around to making ACTUAL sourdough.

Another weekend, another batch of bread. This is my most compact and well-rounded one yet, I think! Starting to get the hang of this, it's interesting how the room temperature affects the rising and proofing times.
