With the hot weather my sourdough bread making shifts a bit into managing energy and more time rising in the fridge.

The dough is pushing at the container top a bit after the overnight chill. It had six hours on countertop then eight overnight in the cold.

I'll probably take it out to rewarm for a couple of hours before forming loaves and baking early this afternoon. No hour-long baking-stone preheat when the AC is on though.

Hey all! So i haven’t baked any bread since mid-May (!!), due to just summer busy-ness and it being too hot. So yesterday, i made up a batch of seeded sourdough, put it in the fridge overnight, and fired up the oven very early this morning when it was cooler. Here’s the result! Nice oven spring, but alas i didn’t get a beautiful ear (again). #BreadPosting #Sourdough #Baking

Bei den aktuellen sommerlichen Temperaturen kann man die Zeiten für die Gare aus dem Rezept nach folgender Faustregel anpassen:

Eine Erhöhung von +5ºC erfordert eine Halbierung der Zeiten für die Stückgare.

Beträgt die Stückgare bei 20ºC laut Rezept also z.B. 12 Stunden, so kommt der Teigling bei 25ºC bereits nach 6 Stunden ab in den Ofen…

Ich hoffe, das hilft Dir weiter…?

First loaf out of the Zojirushi bread machine. It looks funny, but it has a great crumb and makes amazing toast. Next time I'll plan my time so that I'm free to re-form the loaf shape before it fully rises and bakes.

Now to run (er, move slowly) to the store for some chocolate chips and make a chocolate loaf cake for tonight!
