Really enjoying the bread making. A break from all the sausage for while.

Got another poolish mixed up this morning.

150g filtered water
less than 1/8 tsp yeast
150g Bobs Red mill AP flour

Mix together real good until you get a white gooey blob.

I use Weck tulip jars without the rubber seal or clips.

In proofer for about 8-12 hrs.
Not going to kettle this loaf this time.

For us novice bread makers.. what is a proofer? What's the next step?
 
There you another bread turning out. All this bread better start watching that waist line it will begin to rise too.

Jealous of the proofer and the knife! Both looks real fun!
 
My wife was at the local farmers market this morning.

She bought me a knife.
Perfect timing . I was looking around the internet last night to find something else to make . I saw some of those " bow knives " . Did a rough sketch , but I was wondering what the length of the blade is ? If you get time of course . Thanks .
Bread boards are getting stacked up . Need another project .

That would be great . Hope I'm not redirecting your thread . If you lay it on its side with a tape opened up next to it , I can blow the picture up to match a tape measure in my hand , then I can measure it myself . Thanks .
