Hello Everyone!

My name is Andrew.

Livng in the UK,  Yorkshire to be precise.  East yorkshire to be evan more precise

I am a trained, time served Baker.   I had the good fortune to cut my bakery teeth in the scratch,  craft sector.  Not many of us left and I am so pleased I went down this route early on.  Not many people are any good at hand molding these days  !

Well, now that I've committed myself to artisan bread, I need to move up from making only two loaves at a time. I have a wood-fired oven that I only fire once a week, so I'd like to increase the load to make better use of the heat/oven space. My thought is to try to make a dough using 5# of flour + starter. That should make about 6 or 7 loaves, I guess.
