No Knead Bread with Miele Combi-Steam Oven
Has anyone made this bread in a combi-steam oven instead of using a Le Creuset? If so, what settings do you use?

Wanda, there is a fair amount of info here https://www.houzz.com/discussions/4050171/sourdough-bread-in-miele-combi-steam-oven#n=80
Thank you for your help. However, I had already been on that thread. Someone posted, asking that very question, but no one replied to it. I’ll have to fiddle around.
Did you see this response?
1. I pre-heated the steel and the oven to 350 degrees and 60 % steam. ( I wanted to make sure there was moisture in the oven when my bread went in.) I pre-heated for 30 minutes.
2. The next stage, when I put the bread dough in, I kept the oven at 350 but went to 100% moisture and baked for 30 minutes. I didn't used a dutch oven for this bread. Just put it on parchment paper and slid it in on a pizza peel.
3. The final stage was 435 degrees for 20 minutes at 0% humidity. I think I could have gone a little longer, but didn't want to overdo things.
Some of the other users said they increased the temp when they loaded the oven to make sure it added steam.
