Feedback? Second batch of harvest loaves
Made a 90:10 white-wheat blend loaf a couple weeks ago that came out nicely. Tried again this weekend and the flavor was there, but the shape and scoring were off. Not sure what I might have done differently. Gallery link below.
The first loaf (flour rings) definitely looks flatter compared to the second loaf. Cross section in gallery seems to confirm this. I'm wondering since the second loaf (no flour rings) came out fuller if I did not left the first proof long enough. Also, neither had great scoring separation. I really like that cracking open look, which I got with the loaf a few weeks ago.
Thoughts on what went differently, or where I could improve?
