Your home oven is not losing to the bakery on skill. It is losing on physics. Here is the one thing that changes the equation.

Why Bakery Bread Cannot Be Replicated at Home. And the One Thing You Can Do About It.
Every home baker has tried to recreate the bread from a great bakery. Most land somewhere short of it. The gap is not about skill or recipes. It is about physics, steam, and time.

Good news! The size of the loaf remained the same but the air pockets were more numerous and smaller resulting in a less dense and chewier bread. This made for a success even if the results, at first glance, did not appear superior. #BreadScience

This morning I adjusted my recipe a bit for the bread machine and both bloomed my yeast and also added a tablespoon of vital wheat gluten to see if I can make a less dense loaf. This has been a Sunday #BreadScience update. More news to follow.

Follow up, it currently smells like bread. 45 minutes left to go. Based on the viewing window it does appear we have a structural failure of the crust, so the air pocket integrity has fallen. Pour some starter out in memoriam of bread that will likely remain dense. #BreadScience

Anyone else using a pH meter?
Using it now to get a better grip on the development of my starters. Optimum between 3.9 and 4.1. This one is going into the fridge now for use tomorrow morning.

Had a good deal on this 2nd hand pH meter.

Third sourdough loaf, learned a bunch. Thanks for sharing that YouTube user @norwegianwood50.bsky.social been watching his videos in addition to others. Next bakes will be even better 🍞 😆 #sourdough #breadscience

Second sourdough loaf. Better crust than the first and also delicious. #breadscience can’t wait to try out the sourdough “pop tarts” recipe 👀
