Hello from a new bread baking enthusiast!
Hello everyone,
I am very excited to have finally joined this forum. I have read posts for the last month or two, and am finally joining. I just found my passion for baking bread about 2 months ago, and I have not stopped baking since! Every day that goes by without baking makes me sad :(. I currently am trying to perfect a stollen recipe and am looking for tips and ideas from experienced stollen bakers!
I look forward to sharing my passion and learning from you!

Hello all... just dropping a line to say hello from Northern Ireland! Anybody else from the Belfast area?
I've been hanging around the site for a couple of weeks now, and have definitely got the bread making bug. Even my fussy eater boyfriend is excited about the bread I'm making - hurrah for the Fresh Loaf!
All the best

Hi everyone.
I've been making my own bread for about 10 years and sourdough for the last couple. My husband has almost finished our wood fired oven and we've made some pizzas, a roast and some apricot crumble (crisp to you US folks) in it already.
Looking forward to sharing with you. I'm in Melbourne Victoria and buy my flours from Marg and Maree's in Heidelberg as well as the Wallaby flour from the supermarket.
Can't remember the last time I bought bread from the shop!
Cheers!
Fay
Just starting out
Hey all! Hopefully going to get a starter, started tonight!
My goal is in 12 days, to make a loaf of sourdough.
Now, Looking around, it seems like it's one of the harder loafs to make. I am handy with baking, but this will be my first attempt at anything with yeast! Wish me luck! I'm thinking I will start a blog on here to document my adventures (hopefully not misadventures!) through my trials!
Update soon!
Just started baking and loving it!
Hi guys,
I'm so glad to have found such an informative, vibrant and very much alive forum like this.
I'm a student from Adelaide, South Australia and i love to cook in my spare time. Recently, being a typical student living on a typical student income, i have decided to start baking my own bread. This is for two reasons, 1. because it's loads cheaper than buying it. and 2. I love the beautiful taste and texture of proper bread that is worthy of decent toppings and that just tastes good on its own.

Hello forum,
just wanted to say hello. We are two German immigrants living since over 10 years in New Zealand now. We live on our 100 acres farm and have milking goats, cows, sheep, chicken etc. We try to be as selfsufficient as possible. I run a small business selling cheese making equipment for the home cheese maker. But my main job is a software engineer and I work from home office. My wife is doing the farm work and I help on the weekend and in the evenings.

Hi my name is Linda and I am new to this. I have been cooking and baking for years. But I real never got into the bread baking part of it. I now have the time my kids have moved out. I love this site I check on this site every day. My question is what are the best books for me to buy? Also what tools do I need to get started?
Thanks for your help
Linda

I use baker's percents and scale all of my ingredients. So, if you are looking for recipes that follow the metric system look no further. If you also have a blog I will gladly check it out and follow you. Comments are always appreciated and fun to find.
