I posted earlier with my sticky dough after BF that doesn’t stay shaped. Here’s the crumb. Please help! Original post copied below:

Fairly new to sour dough. After my bulk ferment, the dough is quite sticky and won’t hold its shape after I shape it and soon become flat. Why is this? Picture attached. This time the BF resulted in basically doubled dough, left it overnight (6 hours) . I don’t usually leave it overnight but even when I don’t leave it so long, it’s always sticky and won’t hold shape. What am I doing wrong?

Only after going in baneton and being in the fridge for 3+ hours does it holds its shape

Recipe: 250g starter 725 g warm water Mix 25 g non iodized salt 1000 g AP best for bread flour

Process: mix well Cover and sit for 1 hour 4 rounds of stretch and folds every 30 minutes (first round has 10 folds the rest have 4), coveted in between. Cover and sit on counter until 50-75% rise. Shape, leave on counter for 20 mins, shape again Fridge for 3 hours+ Bake in pre heated Dutch oven covered at 500 for 35 then lid off at 425 for 10-15 min

I haven’t baked this batch yet but typically the bread itself still turns out ok. I’ll update commenters with a pic of the loaf later today

Pleas help.

Feeling proud of this one and I just want to hang out in here. My first ever colour drench.

Finished setup to see that the griddle and hood don’t line up with the base at the back, and there’s also such a gap that the screws wouldn’t even connect them. But upon looking at videos of others, they don’t even have this additional welded piece. Was there a change? Does it really matter? I messaged blackstone warranties and they don’t have answers and said they’ll maybe have a replacement part in 6 months…

Got this fish rug for my bathroom. Now I want to re-decorate my whole bathroom to match it. But can’t come up with decor ideas that aren’t tacky.

Or.. do I send it back?

My home style is vintage, mid century and a bit eclectic!

HALP!
