This was an "off-the-cuff" see how it comes out creation and the first time using a soaker for me. Probably should have picked an established recipe but overall it came out ok. More hydration would probably have given a better, more open crumb, but I wasn't sure how the soaker would fare.

Organic Oat Groats In Flaked Oats Out
Cut whilst still a little warm . . . should have waited longer but was keen to see how it looked and tasted.
Definitely some genuine sourness to the loaf but not in any way acidic or tart/tangy. It smells nice but the taste is kinda odd to me. At first there doesn't appear to be any remarkable or overwhelming taste but then flavours start to come through after a few seconds. I had also intended to put sunflower and poppy seeds in during the folds but totally forgot !! Doh!

When it cools the flavour might improve. Sometimes happens with mine. Looks nice. A porridge bread.
ElPanadero: It looks wonderful. I think I will have to try it, but I won't be able to mill the flour and would add the poppy seeds and sunflower seeds. A lovely looking bread. Congratulations. Best, Phyllis
