Nice so long as you have an electric oven. We have gas, and gas ovens don't hold the steam. I can make okay loaves using the ice, etc. but nothing like I can in a dutch oven.
Looks like a neat solution to multiple loaves. However, I have a feeling that cast iron pan will eventually crack due to the fast temperature changes. The stress builds up in the material (see e.g. tempered glass) until the material fatigue sets in. Will be interested in how long it lasts, if it turns out to be a problem at all.
I do both. 30 minutes in dutch overnight with stem and then 15 inures open with stream. Works great for me but I have a sh*tty over that only goes up to 450deg.
I recently got a steel and I baked for the first time on it tonight. My bottoms got hard … suggestions?! 500 preheat for an hour. Down to 450- baked for 35 min . Internal temp was 209

I’m afraid it will break the glass
"so I can cook 3 of them"
Thank you
Beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing this 🙂 💛
Gorgeous!
I’m only using a Dutch oven most of the time because I found one from Holland at goodwill for $8.99
😍😍😍
Does that mess up the cast iron pan, or it it a sacrificial piece?
A dutch oven on the woodstove..forget about it..no timer no electric..peace of mind..ive yet to make a decent loaf of bread thou those are beautiful
You don’t need to turn them because the fan back there circulates the heat evenly.
Smashing job on the bread.
Amazing!! 🤩
why the ice why not just water earlier in the process ?
What size gloves do you have? Should it be snug or kind of loose?
Cast iron pan and water = accelerated rust. Isn’t it better to use glass container with water instead?

How long do you bake at 500 F before you rotate the loafs.
Se ve delicioso!. Felicidades, estoy tratando de hacer, me falta paciencia y practica!. Blessings 💖
What temperatures do you bake at?
Thank you for sharing this video Dutch oven is too expensive and that’s why I didn’t try to bake sourdough bread
Is it worth getting one if I’m only a once a week sourdough bread baker and make only two loaves at a time?
Unfortunately we have gas ovens here. So Dutch oven it is until I make an out door wood fired pizza oven that can double as a bread oven.
Crust too crisp and browned for my taste, will keeping the steam do the same effect of keeping the lid on for a longer proportion of the time?

best reason indeed
How long do you bake, what temp, and when do you take out the steam bath?
There’s a fan in your oven 😅 wait does mine have one?
