That bread looks great!

A different mixer might need a different amount of time or a particular speed setting or whatever, but I'm sure the overall plan would still be the same.

I just noted how I did these. I just look at the dough when it's starting to mix and can adjust the hydration by eye and feel. Same with baking, the time is a suggestion. A thermometer is the only way I'll say "Done." :)
