I decided that the crust wasn't firm enough, so I put it back in the now cooler oven, set the thermostat for 425/400 F, and left it in for 7 minutes, as the oven warmed up.

The paper plate is 9" in diameter.

The crumb is actually lighter/fluffier than it looks in the photo. It's typical of a faster-rising yeasted loaf. And not as flavorfull as sourdough, or a slower rising loaf, or if I had waited longer to cut open.
