@GrantBakes4 жыл бұрын
You can definitely sub a little bit of rye flour. I wouldn't use a lot (maybe 50 grams or so). If you use too much rye flour the dough will feel and act a lot differently and the process might not work out the same. Rye is great, it just acts very differently to wheat and spelt. And yes, you could use a mixer for this if you want. Just knead for about five to eight minutes until the gluten is well developed, then follow the same bulk fermentation and proofing steps in the video. You could skip the stretch and folds.

Thanks for trying out the recipe! Good question...for my oven 20 min worked out, but for your oven it might need longer. Try 25 or 30 minutes with the lid on and then another 10-15 min with the lid off. If you take the top off and the dough still looks glossy and not fully expanded, pop the lid back on and give it another 10 minutes. Baking the bread with the lid on until it is fully expanded is most important. Then, once that happens, remove the lid to allow the bread to get a nice brown crust. I wouldn't worry about letting the dough come up to room temperature, but do make sure that you're preheating the oven for long enough. A half hour usually works for me.

Hi Grant, great video! Unfortunately my bread wasn't great. I don't know what I did wrong. When I first mixed the flour it seemed very wet so I added a tiny bit more flour was this wrong? When I was doing the stretch and folds the bread seemed very shaggy and a bit stiff not smooth like yours. I noticed your flour is whole grain is that different to wholemeal spelt? I'm in the U.K. And haven't found any whole grain only wholemeal. Many thanks!
@GrantBakes4 жыл бұрын
Hey, sorry your bread didn't turn out great. I believe whole grain is the same as wholemeal in the UK. But of course just make sure it's wholemeal spelt and not regular wholemeal wheat. I recommend to follow the measurements and don't add any extra flour the next time you make it. It should be a pretty stiff dough at 65% hydration, so adding more flour might make the dough too shaggy and the final bread too dense. If it seems too wet at first, just make sure to incorporate all of the flour into the water, and then let the dough rest for 30 minutes. The 30 minute rest period should ideally transform the dough and make it much easier to handle, even if it seemed wet at first. Overall, honestly it might just take a few tries to get it right. If you try it again, please let me know! You can even email me with photos at grantbakesbread@gmail.com. How did the final bread turn out for your first try?
