Louis XIII - Spear question

For those that have a bottle, how do you do your pours? Do you just pour from the glass like a madman? Use the official spear? Or have another brand of pipette you use?

First loaves ever ! I made a hot honey, Brie, ham and pear sandwich first and the second night I made croque Monsieur.

Recipe (in grams and using Fahrenheit )

125g starter

325 water

500 bread flour

10 salt

1 hr rest

Stretch and folds

Rest for 4 hours until doubled

Shaped dough

Baked at 475 with lid on for 20 mins and at 425 for 15 mins with lid off for loaf on left in first pic and 25 mins at 475 with lid on and 15 mins at 425 on right

Notes: I think I should’ve used the starter closer to its peak but I fed it too early the night before. I’m going to try pumpernickel next ❤️

Would appreciate any critiques
