Any Home Bakers Here?

Time to ask for a somewhat late or very early B-Day present! Of course that won't help with your current predicament.

For better or worse the bread is in the oven. It did grow pretty well though it turns out even though I used the instant read thermometer to check the oven temp after it cooled down when the lasagna was removed (read 80°F) it was probably back up to about 100°F when I pulled it out so it had a bit of a very thin "crust" when I next did the finger poke test. But I don't suppose I've killed it. It will be dessert in about 25 minutes.
It should be good with butter and honey!
 
OK, here is the final product. Tastes OK but not full of holes like sourdough should be, and a bit chewy.

It looks good!

Use a temperature probe next time. Add the probe when the time suggested for baking has about 5 minutes left. Bread is done at 195 to 205F

This type of bread does not have big holes.

The no knead type has holes. I am working on a recipe for no knead sourdough and will post it when I am happy with it
