    @nzzp you are sure getting a good spring.
    Looks from the bottom of the loaf that you are using a cast iron pan? or Dutch Oven?

    Yep, dutch oven. That's a fennel and white flour sourdough; the proofing baskets have transformed them from ghetto to seriously good looking loaves. It's a regular thing in the house now, and great to gift to people

    Do you plan to graduate to 'free-form'?

    I don't think you have too, just asking if that's the plan. I moved on when one wasn't enough at a time and trying to time two was a pain.
    You obviously have to adjust a bit and ensure structure but yours look pretty good in that regard anyway. It's not like they have spread to the sides.

    no intent to.

    I did two today - the other was good, but a lot simpler. I find the timing no worries - 20 min on the first, then pop it out and into the oven,a nd the second loaf goes in. 20 min, lid off, first loaf out, and then done in 20 more.

    second loaf - good lift, and I got an 'ear'!

    I'm spamming y'all with sourdough porn now. Last one for a while I promise

    got some advice on how to start, sourdough needs a culture doesn't it? love bread but never baked it other than in a bread machine out of a packet

    so never posted in here....i like to think im ok at BBQ but dont think ive ever done anything special or unusual

    anyway, a couple of years ago i found some smoked olive oil in the supermarket, used it whenever i BBQ'd stuff, was great. It ran out and i wasn't able to find it again. some interneting turned up this place

    Three Blue Ducks

    Three Blue Ducks

    Three Blue Ducks provides a unique dining experience, showcasing authentic and delicious food at five locations around Australia!

    got my self some of their smoked oil and smoked salt, its next level, smells like a camp fire, highly recommend

    @kiwiwomble I'd never even considered baking bread before, but got a voucher for a half day course at a culinary school and decided I'd try that one (was only like 50 quid). It was excellent, fuck bread's pretty easy if you want it to be eh!

    @kiwiwomble bread is really easy. SOurdough is as complex as you make it.

    This place has good resources
    https://www.reddit.com/r/Sourdough/

    check the right hand side - some good links

    suggest you get a starter from a friend, or follow their instructions
    https://www.reddit.com/r/Sourdough/wiki/sourdoughstarters

    standard recipe they do - it's pretty good and clear.
    https://www.reddit.com/r/Sourdough/wiki/standard-sd-recipe

    Personally, I just played - did a loaf a week. First one below alongside a breadmaker load. Quite a change in less than a year!

    Anyone had any success making decent gluten free bread? Daughter is coeliac and most bought breads are still pretty average

    @nzzp yeah I do 2 chilli cheese loaves every fortnight and they serve us for breakfast until the next batch. If I had a better kitchen I'd make more.

    @Kiwiwomble the key is good flour too. If you can find a decently priced lesson I'd recommend it.

    @voodoo the FIL has just started gluten free so I'll see if they've tried any recipes.

    I won’t be making bread with it.

    Sounds like you’d enjoy Garage Projects Pickle Beer.
    It’s an acquired taste.
