Used Natasha’s Baking quick sourdough recipe: 150g levain, 270g BF, 30g wholewheat flour, 222g water, 7g salt.

Shout out to u/protozoicmeme for sharing his dough handling technique. Watched his video and used his method here. First time trying out Rubaud method and lamination. Shout out to this sub in general – I have learnt so much from everyone!

Hoping to get better at shaping and getting a better oven spring

    Congrats, you have achieved open crumb! Now you can focus on making bread that has the kind of crumb YOU prefer 😉

    Rubaud’s method is great for developing dough strength earlier in the process for higher hydration of doughs, but you could also try the good ol’ slap and fold!

    I find that Rubaud can tire my arm out so I often ended up doing the slap and fold instead haha.
