Camp Chef 14 Deluxe for 2 kg Miche, and Red Hen comparison
In my quest to make a perfect, consistent, large miche (~2kg), I have made a slow transition from partially yeasted to my current formula, which is sourdough only, 80% hydration. I m learning that different flours behave very differently, and many of my experiments have resulted in mud, pancake-flat loaves, giant air chambers, flying saucers etc.
I have a good formula; no question about it. Problems arise from things like shaping technique, insufficient folding, excess hydration for a specific flour, and a biggie: insufficient steam while baking. I ve found that even if I do everything else right, lack of steam defeats me, sometimes turning the miche into a basketball, or a strained sofa-cushion shape.
