Green is the working loaf. Gold is the last mix that still has a gluten net. Red past the ceiling is a sticky puddle.

How it handles

More extensible than KA bread, less tolerant of water. Autolyse 20 min, then mix to a moderate window. At 68% it pans and shapes cleanly. 74% is the last honest boule — above that you are fighting a slack AP dough, not unlocking crumb.

  • Sandwich Loaves
