Super easy. 1 hour rise, shape, 10 min proof. 3-5 mins on each side on a griddle, finish in oven for 7-10 mins...I've had 3 so far today. Planning on eggs Benedict tomorrow for brekkie

One I was looking at had a 18 hour ferment!
I was hungry and it was Breakky time I ended up making pancakes lol

After seeing comment here somewhere I tried making English Muffins. Just a simple recipe found on line. They looked reag good , just like a store bought. Even had a great airy texture. But tasted more like pancakes.

That looks great! I’ll be baking a loaf later today, and might try your scoring pattern.

I'm trying to make my bread look better as well as taste better so I have been practicing different scoring patterns. I like the way this one looks and it seems to encourage a nice vertical oven spring

Well this isn’t pretty, but it is far better than my previous loaf, which ended with a total rise of about 3 inches. I still need to figure out the rise and proofing times for my sourdough. Now it’s time to start brewing my Hoppy American Brown Ale.

Here is my sourdough round, fresh from the oven. I switched things up a bit, this time. My oven has convection capability, so I used it. I utilized a scoring technique that allowed for even opening. Yes, it looks a bit overdone, but I bet it is good inside.

Thanks Ben, it actually turned out well, inside it looks great. Enjoyed a slice toasted this morning, with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of sea salt. It will make a fine egg sandwich, or a base for avocado toast.

A whole other grain to glass....

I usually make my mash rolls with wet mash but was too lazy to thaw out a pack so let's see how dense a cup of dry does instead of 2 cups wet...but first... a trip to the grist mill...hi hi Vita-Mix

I use a coffee grinder to turn my oven-dried spent grain into a coarse flour. After getting inconsistent results (too dry or too moist) I weighed what I was adding and found significant variance in a cup of spent grain flour from batch to batch. Now I only add spent grain by weight. I use 90 grams of spent grain in place of 1 cup of whole wheat flour.
FYI: I use a Cuisinart bread machine.

I tested milling simpson pale ale malted barley and ended up with 100 gram
I decided to run it through my small mill (3-roller) to grind it a bit finer.
(Pic 1, next post, not working right now)
Then added equal amount AP flour, 60% water, baking powder, oive oi and salt.
I let it sit for a bit and then baked (or is it fried, but I used no oil?) In my cast iron skillet.
(Pic 2)
The result was not pretty, nut it tasted good and I'm sure I ate more than the monthly required intake of fibre in one go
