All rises in Fridge?
So, It's hot here in CT and muggy too. I do a variation of on of Trevor's recipes as my fall back.... and am finding even if I do the bulk fermentation late in the evening and final rise in fridge overnight, it still over-proofs. Today I did a 3 hour bulk rise at Room Temp (we have A/C set for 72º F) and final 1 1/2/ hour also at Room Temp. I'm sure the flavor will suffer tho. And I had to rescore after 7 minutes...., as I do these days b/c the scores are closing up on me.
So, has anyone done both rises in the fridge? I may try that next weekend to see if it solves the problem.
Thanks in advance.
