Father-in-law uses all trumps high gluten flour in his bakery. The gluten makes the dough much more workable for sub rolls, hard rolls, etc, breads you shape. They use it for all their breads.
He makes the best sour rye I've ever had, and a onion sour rye.
Don't know much about his starter other than he makes his own, only uses it in his rye.

That sound good. Mine had a donut shop good stuff there back in the day. Long hard hours in that shop.

If she makes sourdough stuff, why did you keep bugging me for my bread a few months ago?
The one thing that I miss about having grandparents, is that my grandfather was a baker. Growing up, my mother would have us make glue out of flour and water. She never told us after a few days that what we were looking at was sourdough. She always told us that the paste had gone bad, and to throw it away and make new. Now that I make sourdough, I have asked her why she didn't tell us. She said she just never thought of it. How do you forget such a major part of your upbringing?

We used to live next to them. I miss smelling that bread every day. No comparison on the fresh smell to regular bread.
He bakes at night until he delivers in the morning.
They have a addition on their house that's the bakery and just whole sale. Big wood fired brick oven, very cheap to run.

In all seriousness, you can just use water that has sat out overnight - the point is to let the chlorine dissipate so it doesn't kill some of the yeast. Not sure that's your problem, though...

Yes and no.
I don't think the chlorine is that big of a problem for yeast but for bacteria it can be.
Setting out water overnight will dissipate chlorine but not chloramine. Most municipal water supplies are now using chloramine and the chlorine in that mix won't dissipate until the chlorine ammonia bond is broken first. You can let water with chloramine sit for days and there will still be chloramine in it.
Muni water systems use chloramine because it is much more stable and they can use less because it doesn't dissipate.

Wood fired might be cheap to run but here you would have to call burn control to make sure it was a burn day.

Where did that come from? Weird stuff going on.
I swear I did not write these words.

I was just commenting on chlorine vs. chloramine and the thought of a brick oven never entered my brain today.

beer can mention it in a post higher up and I thought you were just agreeing.
