Understanding BULK fermentation. The KEY step for OPEN CRUMB and FLAVOR development. | JoyRideCoffee

[@mfknknb]

This is the first accurate video I’ve seen for a high hydration dough

[@tenore8]

You are a master. I would LOVE to see you do the same thing with 100% freshly-milled whole grain flour.

[@nikinikolakaki9346]

Your remarks are right to the point. The gap between the 1st and 3rd loaf needs to be well planned as usually most flours do not stand so many hours and sometimes it's difficult to do the shaping right. But the experiment was successful since it showed clearly the difference between the "fool's crumb" and a lacy open one. Bulk fermentation is the key indeed but as we all are amateurs, it's hard to make the time to ferment for 6 hours. No need to say, the well fermented bread jumps to another level. Thank you for taking the time to do the experiment and present it wrapped with nice music and beautiful scenery!!

[@BreadbyJoyRideCoffee]

Thank you Niki! :)

[@beeobama6091]

the first loaf isn't a fool's crumb. fool's crumb looks like a dense bread with just a few huge holes in it and is caused by structural folds rather than fermentation. the first loaf has irregular open crumb, but they are all from fermentation.

[@andrewpeterson5882]

@@beeobama6091 I agree, there's a lot of folks who post pics lamenting their "fool's crumb" and in like 80% of those cases the crumb COULD be better and more open, but in reality are just like loaf #1 here which is a perfectly serviceable and probably delicious loaf. I struggled with actual fools crumb early on in my sourdough journey and the difference between an actual fool's crumb loaf and loaf #1 here is vast.

"who masters this" ? You do my friend. This has provided me with a lot of information that will hopefully help me get closer to where I want to be on my journey to making decent sourdough. I've had some successes, and lots of failures. So much of this is understanding the science (right down to the cellular level and the chemical reactions that are going on), but equally important is understanding that there are a bunch of wild card variables that you have to contend with including type of flour, room temperature, hydration level, bulk fermentation process and duration, and shaping technique. Getting any one of these elements wrong can ruin your day. You have to develop a sense for what is right every step of the way, and that requires being aware of what is actually happening in the process. The baking stage is the easy part.

[@vinyei93]

The recipe of a bread like this is not only the list of ingridients, and how much of them. The recipe contains proofing times, volumes. For exaplme. A classic sourdough bread recipe calls for 20% starter, and 4 hours of bulk at 26 C. What is your starter is much faster? Or slower? Your bread will be over or underproofed. If you only look the recipe(times for example), you wont have a good end result. But if you look the bread, the sings of fermantation, which is also a part of a recipe, then you will achieve amazing breads. 😊

[@jpcelestian]

Can you provide any comments about temperatures? Such as flour and water temperatures for autolyse? And, I think the room temp is too hot where I am, I'm not sure if I can do this well because I'll either be dealing with room temps that are high or refrigeration that is much cooler. Or I could setup a bedroom at a crisp 20C if needed but that's gonna use a lot of electric power. It seems like when kneading the dough in warm temperatures it gets too sticky. But I'm not sure if maybe the warmer temps maybe makes the kneading go faster or not. Thanks!

[@marcoacco]

[@saharmahallati6793]

You explained fermentation beautifully. Thank you for making these informative videos.

[@swallacepdx]

First of all, thanks for all your videos! They are really inspiring. I've always found it hard to understand if I'm letting the bulk go far enough or too far. Watching your videos has certainly helped as has reading "Open Crumb Mastery". Since you're now doing videos with multiple loaves, looking at effects of differences in staging, I was wondering if you could do a video or two where you look at how you ferment the loaf and calibrate your timings with a small (maybe 50-100g) piece of dough just after you've added salt+levain but which you leave in a glass (so you can judge how it rises without being subject to manipulation). The idea would be to mark the glass with the 100g calibration dough at its initial volume and then show the volume of the calibration piece at the end of bulk and at the end of proofing. Anyway, just a thought! Thanks again!

[@thanhtrungle5721]

Thank you, very helpful video, saved me days of testing

[@suburbanhobbyist2752]

18:09 That is exactly what that is. In fact, most of them look a bit like "fools crumb" to me. Here's the thing I've discovered about sourdough. People are making it way, way too complicated and playing with their dough too much. The process in this video is a great example. A ton of regular air pockets were introduced because the dough was kneaded, laminated, folded too much. I've had awesome results by simply doing a 30 minute to 2 hour autolyse and then simply doing the fold technique (the one you did in the glass container except stretch a bit more before folding over) maybe 5 times. Then shape and in the fridge for however long is needed to proof. That's it! No kneading, no lamination, no stretch/fold on the counter etc etc. Just mix it, fold it while it bulks, proof it and bake it. Since I've been doing it this way my crumb has had very nice holes that are evenly spaced but not too big (a few decent sized ones) and great oven spring. I also think you over bulked all of them to be honest. I usually stop my bulk after they've clearly grown but with a lot of room left to grow. These look like they were all pretty much at the very end of the bulk. Makes sense because when you took them out of the bannetons they flattended out considerably which means you might have over proofed.

[@Hallands.]

Yep!

[@micheledeneuve7706]

> "I've had awesome results(...)That's it! No kneading, no lamination, no stretch/fold on the counter etc etc." Define "awesome". "Pretty" doesn't make it awesome. No-knead bread wrecks havoc on the gut lining, which is only one layer of cells thick (your regular skin has seven). Sure it "works", in that the dough will ferment, but without p[roper kneading, it will ferment improperly. Without kneading, the protein structure is malformed and the enzymes that are produced by the microorganisms in the starter will cut it at random. You won't end up with the same beneficial chemicals, not to mention that unfermented gluten is a glue. It will glue to your gut lining. No-knead bread will not give you the feeling of mental peace and serenity we all get from properly kneaded and correctly fermented sourdough. As for the length of fermentation... > "I also think you over bulked all of them " No, he did not. It takes six hours of bulk fermentation at room temperature to break down the phytic acid (an integral part of all grains and nuts that will send you to a dentist if you keep consuming it unfermented). That's why the dough needs so much kneading and other handling techniques: to reach six hours of bulk. Anything less than that and you are asking for trouble. I learned baking while fighting an autoimmune disease of the gut that made me unable to tolerate improperly processed bread. I know what I am talking about. Joyride Coffee is doing it exactly right and you are dispensing dangerous advice. "A ton of regular air pockets were introduced" Not true. It seems that you are not very familiar with proper dough handling techniques. Six hours bulk is spot-on correct. One other thing: B vitamins do not get synthesized in your fridge. Bulk fermentation at 24 to 30C is the way to go. After that, proofing at lower temperatures is acceptable.

Your hands and technique are so consistent, which makes these experiments great! I would love to see your typical method compares to simply mixing the flour, water, salt, and starter together at the very beginning (skipping autolyse and such). How does the autolyse and adding the salt/starter in stages make a difference in the final crumb?

[@BreadbyJoyRideCoffee]

[@RGS61]

Great video! Thanks for sharing! .. There is an interesting paradox in sourdough breadmaking .. while the process of stretch and folds and lamination during bulk work to multiply and organize the gluten matrix (often incorrectly described as "strengthening the gluten", since the actual gluten was formed when water met flour) .. the addition of the levain introduces the process of fermentation which works to simultaneously weaken the gluten, which is actually an objective of bulk fermentation .. The reason why your first loaf had such an open, uneven crumb was because the gluten was too strong and the gluten matrix was uneven throughout the dough .. with subsequent loaves, coils and time, the gluten mellowed and the matrix evened out .. while staying inside the time limit during which the gluten can continue to provide structure .. Which is where retarding comes in .. to halt the more more aggressive fermentation activity of the yeasts, while allowing the lactic acid bacteria to continue to help develop flavor, without risking the structure of the dough, and eventual loaf ..

Do you find it's necessary to do folds during the later stages? Does this contribute towards a more even crumb?

Very informative. Thank you. I'm also starting to learn the hard way that recipes don't really matter aside of what concerns fermentation.

[@clintongormley802]

Great video, thank you. One question: you talk about an increase in volume but from what point? For instance, fullproofbaking bulks until a sample of dough, separated from the main dough before the salt had been added, increases in volume by 90%. Is your 40/50% increase measured from the last fold?

[@BreadbyJoyRideCoffee]

It is difficult to appreciate this increase. I'm trying to approximate from the moment I added the starter. I never used a piece of dough as a control. But notice how forgiving the sourdough is practically in an interval of 3-4 hours of open crumb.

Awesome video. So in depth and really appreciate the side by side comparison from beginning to end of three different fermentation lengths. Been struggling to bake baguettes with airy crumb. Not sure if it's because it doesn't use a starter or if I'm kneading it too much, or not fermenting it enough. The crumb usually comes out too dense and uniform. Wonder if you or anyone here can help. I mix the ingredients and let it proof for 45 minutes before folding it a few times, and do that 4 times before shaping (total of 3 hours proofing time). Then, I let it rest for an hour before putting it in the oven. Looks like you do a lot of folding and the crumb still comes out beautifully. That leads me to believe that I should maybe let the dough rest much longer after shaping.

Great video Can you help me with something? Is it possible, that the flour i am using, cannot handle this much bulk fermentation? I think i can handle a dough pretty careful, but if i push bulk over 30-35 %, i tear it, or it cannot hold itself togehter, and becomes a mess. I dont know why. If i shape it at 25-35 %, it holds shape, springs well in the oven, but nowhere near this open crumb Can it be the flour? Or maybe the water content? I use lower % water, tipically 65-70%, maybe with this much water, the more proofing makes the dough slaggy? Thanks

Hello and thank you very much for all these extraordinary recipes to make a good loaf of bread. Now I have a couple of questions that I want you to get me out of my doubts. First what I need to know is when you put the bread in the fridge, which is the right temperature it should have, since my fridge gets too cold but doesn't freeze. The other question I have is when you take the bread out of the fridge, make it acclimatize to room temperature or let it rest for, say, 1/2 hour and then cook it. Besides, I would like to know which is the best flour for you can use to make those breads that you does, if you can give me a brief explanation... since you says that he does not believe in recipes, simply in flour, water and sourdough. So I would really appreciate it if you could answer my questions. Thank you very much and have you an excellent day José.

Thanks for your video...question, during bulk fermentation (past 2nd hour) my dough gets 'destroyed'...it weakens drastically; what am I doing wrong?

[@artvandelay1555]

I am amazed that you can bulk ferment for so long. I start with the Rubaud method for 5-6 minutes, then maybe 2 stretch & folds, and 2-3 coil folds in a pan such as you use. Either way, if i go much past 3 hours of bulk fermentation my dough becomes over fermented. Loses it's force, gets mushy and if i still bake with it after the usual overnight in frigo it has a smaller ear and half as much rise compared to when i only bulk ferment for 3, maybe 3hours 15 min. There is no arguing with success on your part, but what am i missing? This happens if i use a cool box or not. Thanks!

How much time do you guys recommend for bulk fermentation for hot temperature areas, around say 30 degrees Celsius in my kitchen 27 to 28 in the evenings when I usually do the bulk fermentation of the dough

I did my starter with rye and white flour, and store in the refrigerator. Since I don't bake often. First I left my starter in room temp, then used exact measures as in your recipe. Yet my dough became so sticky, it didn't come out and was unable to be knead as you did. However I still baked it, didn't rise and has a yeast taste. Do you cover the basket with flour before proofing and do you oil your hands and the plates before kneding?☺️
