First loaf and with my own starter

Recipe in comment.

I changed it a little. I used 50g of whole wheat flour and 450g of bread flour for the 500g flour total.

30 min autolyse then I did 3 stretch and folds every 30 min. Then put it in the bowl covered in the fridge overnight for bulk rise ~14 hours.

A little preshaping then put it in a banneton covered in the microwave for 2nd rise for about 2.5 hours.

Placed on small lid of combo cooker. Dusted with rice flour then scored using my Wire Monkey UFO lame. Scoring could have been deeper. I thought I nailed it but nope. Lol

Baked at 450F for 20 min in Lodge combo cooker on a small piece of parchment with 2 ice cubes. Took too off and cooked another 20 min. Inside temp was 202F when done but I see if could have been a smidge longer.

Not sure if I cut it too soon. I let it cool for 2 hours but probably could have used another 30 min or an hour as it was slightly warm when I cut into it.

It did taste wonderful! That satisfying sourdough flavor! I made my son and I “adult grilled cheese” sandwiches for dinner with Gouda and havarti.
