Loaf 2 – getting better

I’ve been baking bread with the help of a neighborhood wizard. My first load was pretty flat – too much water in the mix I think. I am also using a different yeast.

I made loaf 2 with less water, and heated the water to 120 degrees as instructed for the instant yeast. Looks… Better, but still much wider than tall.

Next step: try regular old yeast.
