    Nice job! I think I over fermented my bulk fermentation. It was a sticky mess and I couldn’t shape it. I threw it out. 😞

    Looks great. 100g of honey? Is there an extra zero on that?

    First loaf? Dude…. Look at those spirals.

    How does it taste? Is it very sweet? I put 20g of honey in mine once and it was quite sweet for a sandwich bread
