@brynn_ann: Under Fermented Sourdough Sometimes your bread can look great from the outside but have a horrible texture and flavor. An under-fermented loaf usually has: • A gummy or slightly wet crumb • A dense, chewy texture • Large, irregular holes surrounded by tight crumb • Bad flavor + harder to chew Bulk fermentation is tricky when you’re starting out! Next time, try pushing your bulk fermentation time if your loaves are coming out like this 💛 #sourdough #sourdoughstarter #sourdoughbread #sourdoughbaking #bulkfermentation

Do you have a bulk fermentation chart based on temperature? I'm struggling at figuring out when it's ready 😭

Mine looked like this but tasted amazing. I let it rest on my counter for 6 hours and then in the fridge over night

Bulk fermentation is the worst part. I have not got it right yet. Have made like 10 loaves so far.

Sometimes it passes all the tests—not sticky to the touch, air bubbles all throughout the bottom and some on top, jiggle test, domes, but still is sticky on the sides when I pull it away— what should I do in that case? Keep fermenting or no?

My starter is 2 weeks old. Lots of bubbles and rises relatively well id say but every day no matter what feeding ratio I use, and I’ve tried even feeding a few times with whole wheat flour, it always smells like acetone before the next feeding ! What do I do?

What does it mean if my dough deflates as soon as I touch it after bulk fermentation

This is what’s confusing to me. I took the temp of my dough before fermentation and it was 75. I checked it after in 5 hours and it had drppped to 72 but it had risen substantially. Which temp should I go by.

is this under or over fermented? It was also a cheddar jalapeno loaf and has cheese throughout and I don’t know how to tell if a loaf is just moist or if it is gummy because it taste fine to me, but it doesn’t really have any air bubbles

This is what my dough looks like after 5 hours of bulk fermentation and it’s still sticky to the touch, is this normal?
