Bready is a community for anything related to making homemade bread!
Bloomers, loafs, flatbreads, rye breads, wheat breads, sourdough breads, yeast breads - all fermented breads are welcome! Vienesse pastries like croissants are also welcome because technically they're breads too.
This is an English language only comminuty.
Rules:
Started making sourdough about 6 months ago. Scaled up my operations and started making 6 at a time. Here’s what I made recently, jalepeno cheddar.
What's your oven setup like? I can fit two Dutch ovens and two Pullman pans for four loaves per bake. Six would be fantastic.
I should clarify. I mix 6 in a giant pot at once. I proof and fit all 6 at once in my fridge. I cook 3 at a time in my regular oven. Two Dutch ovens and one smaller loaf bread oven.
It would be awesome if I had 6 loaf style bread ovens-if they were like the one I have - I could probably get all 6 loaves in the oven at once. But that would be expensive and just silly to shave 45 minutes of cooking time.
Ah, I see. Not too far removed from what I do then. Thanks for the reply!
lol from zero to 6 in 6 months is amazing! these look great and im sure you're learning a ton. don't burn out!
Thanks. :) They didn’t look good at first. Lots of flat crappy loafs for months. All edible, but ya, failures. I’ve only recently started making loaves that look and taste good.
Holy! Are you mormon or just running a bakery? They all look pretty damn good. I am envious.
lol no bakery, not Mormon. Just a regular guy, but one with a family. My kids have hollow legs. My starter lives in the fridge and it lasts about three weeks before it starts starving. So I just bake in bulk and freeze the bread. It started as a time thing, but for whatever reasons that I don’t understand-the bread also comes out better when I do it in bulk. So ya, I do 6 at a time. I don’t have the room or stuff to do more than that at once ;)
