I just got one of these ovens. My first sour dough came out near perfect. I just used the tray that comes with the oven and placed the loaf on parchment and slid it in. Preheated prior to 450 with steam at 100%. Cooked for 20 minutes at full steam, then another 20 minutes without steam at around 400. I did open the door a few times to let steam out during last phase. No complaints. I think most need to adjust the bread hydration to get it right. Experiment. Baking this way is different than a conventional oven. Normally for me to get the same results would be twice the cook time in my regular oven in a dutch oven.

I’ll have to try baking a sourdough using the included baking sheet instead of my cast iron skillet. I hope you’re enjoying your Anova oven, I love mine!

how do you get oven spring without a massive preserved heat underneath? I htink the second you open the temp drops by about 30F and during loading it might go twice of that.. I will try 'dough'

I have the Anova oven but my center is not getting cooked enough as you are doing. Hi hydration can be a little gummy inside. I am leaving the temperature at 450 for maybe six or seven minutes and then I turn it clear down to 325 and cooking about 30 to 35 minutes more. The inside is turning out better. This is a personal preference but after I turn it down I don't dump the steam I leave at 100% it's definitely not as crispy as dumbing and going to 0% but yet still sum crisp. Again personal preference If you cut more to one side and angled toward the center you will get more ear. If you want the ear I just read the size of your loaves mine are larger at about 890g total. I have also did a lot of enriched breads at 65% hydration I am using the oven to proof them in a bread pan and then immediately turning it to 325 and the entire bake is at 325. so 95 proof to 325 bake at 100%. After 20 minutes I take it out of the pan and finish direct baking on the rack; turns out beautifully browned all over and very soft because it's an enriched dough.

I would try unplugging it and let it sit for a couple hours, then try it out and see if it works. If that doesn’t fix the problem, I would contact Anova support. My experience with them has been good in the past. My water tank was cracked and they sent me a new one.

I just ordered one. I am disappointed to hear about the cracking. I am a very long time hobbyist sourdough Baker. literally thousands of loaves. And I am anxious to try it. What was the total weight your flour and what percentage of starter did you use and hydration amount? I'm going to try to find a small baking stone would a 14 inch round stone go in this oven?
@josephlacattiva3 жыл бұрын
Hi Sonny! Anova is supposed to be working on modifying the tank to resolve the problem. Although support has been great, they sent me a new tank fairly quickly! This loaf had a total weight of 567g, 70% hydration, 20% starter. Check out my video here for the recipe: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gXTNd4CLj7d0nck included in the comments are recipes for 70% and 80% hydration. Anova has a baking steel listed on their website, I'm looking to maybe get one myself. Happy baking!

Anova is nightmare for baking bread without dutch oven(or similar equipment) Steam escapes too fast, crust forms too quick, poor ovenspring. I use it as my main oven, works amazing for meat and huge air frier, but not bread baking without cover.

I’ve had some success baking bread in my Anova oven, but I have to admit my results are generally better in my conventional oven. I’m still doing some testing, and I still need to try out the “oven off” method for baking sourdough in the Anova.

Is this oven more efficient than baking with the Challenger DO? At 450°f it takes me 20min w/cvr on and 25min with cvr off. The final baked internal temp is bet. 205°-210°f.

Thank you! Yes, the steam is sealed within the oven and it produces plenty to contribute to the oven spring of the sourdough.
