I followed the KA no-knead recipe to a T. 227g starter, 397g water, 600g bread flour, 1 tbsp salt. Let rise for a total of three hours with folds every hour. Rest covered in fridge for 8 hours or up to 48 hours. Shape and bring to room temp once ready to bake, then bake 45 minutes at 450 covered and 15 mins uncovered.

I let it rest for the full 48 hours because that’s what my schedule would allow and I only let it cool 2 hours before cutting since we needed it for dinner. I want to try the same recipe again with the shortest resting time and let it cool completely before cutting into it. Any suggestions?

    You may want to scale down your recipe, looks like it barely fits in your Dutch oven! I do 400g flour, ~75% hydration recipe which allows for lots of room for oven spring without expanding into the sides of my 6qt le cruset Dutch.
