Re: Gratuitus Overkill Time

So, in that spirit, first test out of the gate was a raging success.

My very first Baguettes ever!  Outside was damn near perfect.  Inside still needs a little work (a bit too dense) but that will come with time.

Today I mixed up some pizza dough.  Following Vito’s method.  (300/300/5/5 honey poolish – 12 hr)  1.5kg total mass for 6 balls.

Melted the poolish in 1/2 water on speed 1 for a minute or two.
Incorporated flour on speed 1 for another minute or two.
Slowly added rest of water and then ran on speed 4 for 6-8 mins.

The only issue so far is that the bowl is quite large and I had to scrape the sides a bit.  Not a huge deal for small batches like this.  I suspect it won’t be a problem for larger ones.

Everything came together just like on YouTube.  Stopped when it got silky and shiny. 

SO glad I got the tilting…
