I picked up the starter from a local bakery so it was pretty active. I am based in Germany and used 405g of 550 wheat flour, 405g of tipo 00 pizza flour that I picked up in a supermarket and 90g of whole wheat flour.
I mixed the initial dough with a Wilfa Probaker spiral mixer and batch fermented for a total of 5.5 hours in an oven with the lights on and did 3 stretch and folds and 3 coil folds.
The first picture shows the first loaf that I baked yesterday and cold-proofed overnight (around 8 hours). The second one was in the fridge for around 32 hours.
I am pretty happy for my first attempt but feel free to feedback. The first one was maybe a bit denser than I would have liked, I did not cut into the second one but it looks pretty good so looking forward to look at the inside later.

Hi all,
not sure why my text did not appear on the post so here are the details.
I just started baking sourdough after reading on this sub for about a week or so and watching several YouTube tutorials.
For my first batch I used this video by Gaz Oakley: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZzK-nc9POA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZzK-nc9POA)
