Here's the process as I followed it. YMMV on step 2. I'm beginning to learn that the dough can smell fear, so if you show no fear then the dough will respect you.
- 600g King Arthur bread flour
- 400g water
- 100g starter
- 20g salt
- 10g white sugar
- 15g salted butter, softened
- Combine flour, water, and starter and mix using the rubaud method until relatively smooth
- Leave, covered, on the counter while you walk down the local bar and have a few, stagger home 2 hours later
- Add salt, sugar, and butter, mix using rubaud method until completely smooth and dough comes together
- Do coil folds, then rest for 20 minutes. Repeat 3-4 times or until you're too tired to bother anymore
- Shape vaguely into a rectangle, transfer into a greased loaf pan, cover with plastic wrap
- Allow to rest on the counter until dough reaches about 1cm from the rim of the pan and passes the poke test
- Transfer to the fridge, cold ferment for about 20 hours
- Remove from fridge, remove plastic wrap, pop bubbles on top, score down the middle, cover with an upside-down loaf pan
- Bake at 425F for 25 minutes, then remove the top pan and bake uncovered until bread hits 205-215F on a thermometer
- Remove from loaf pan, cool on a wire rack overnight

Amazing crumb!
Now that’s what I’m after!
Bit salty for me, I use 14 ish for 750/550/100 loaf.
How long are you rubauding for? That shit gets long.
But you are getting results with it so might put the effort in again.
2.2% salt for me, and no sugar.
Your step 3 has butter, but no butter in the ingredients list.
Bread looks excellent!! Yum!
That is some beautiful bread!!
