Hello all,
I found your site this morning while looking for new ideas and techniques and I love the site. Looks like there's tons of wisdom around here and I look forward to learning more and hopefully being able to give some back.
I'm just a simple home baker and make around 2 loaves a month. I'd make more, but my girlfriend (and her workout schedule) get mad at me every time I make some. So far, my bread has turned out very well, but it's not very consistent. I feel like I'm going through the steps correctly, but I'm definitely still learning the nuances. I've currently got a rye sourdough starter feeding on the counter and intend to make a 2/3 rye/spelt Baurenbrot tomorrow. Last time was good, but it stuck to the bowl on the final proof and ripped the "skin" off before it went into the oven, so I feel there's room for improvement. Anywho...that's me. Thanks for allowing me in.
