Finally got a decent rise with a 75% hydration
These baguettes were not as painful as they had been to make in the past. I handled them less and they did rise better than in the past. The crumb was okay,no txfarmer style. But, she has this down to a science. The boys ate these up.

Those look nice. It took me several attempts before I came close to TxFarmers crumb so keep baking and you will get there!
I feel like it is 1 step forward and 2 back. That crumb is amazing that she has. Folding a high hydration baguette is a special skill. I just saw one of your breads it was late at night. You are a skilled baker!
Warm Regards,

when it comes to baguettes. Her 100% whole wheat ones are twice as open as my all white flour ones! Her baguettes are so good that around here she is Emperor Ming the Merciless's daughter; Empress Ying, as her baking is out of this world and alien for mere mortals.
You will quickly sort these baguettes out and possibly become alien yourself :-)
Very well done - you baguettes look tasty!
