Try coming here some time other than yuropoor and 'straya shitposting hours and you'd probably be pleasantly surprised.
The loaf behind it was much more aesthetic but whatevs

Moved a few months ago to a rented apartment, the oven is shit and doesnt heat properly, like 120 degrees max and the landlord claims its not broken so refuses to fix/replace it. Yesterday the oven broke fucking up the gas supply aswell, so no hot water. Hopefully now she'll replace it. Sorry for the blog but I feel taunted by being unable to bake bread for like 4 months now.

Time and temperature faggot.

Last loaf I baked using spent grains from brewing beer.

how easy is it to make bread and how long does this last you? Recipe?
So I've been wanting to make bread but I have no idea what I'm doing, how far will I get just mixing water and flour, then putting in the oven for awhile?
Here are the loaves I just pulled out of the oven (5% cornmeal, 10% wholewheat, leavened with sourdough - will be damn tasty). Sorry for no crumbshot, I had a big dinner and it's almost bedtime, not slicing into these until breakfast time.

Not very far. Baking bread isn't particularly challenging - it just has an initial learning curve. If you want to fuck around with water and flour (you should add salt too tho) and make something edible with the absolute minimum of effort, I suggest you make very simple flatbreads - these can be cooked on a skillet and made in very, very small batches, much more convenient than baking anything in an oven.

Not who you were responding to, but op here. My loaf only took 2 hours. Only 1 rise.
>>7406391
those look great

das nais
>>7405522
how did it taste?
>>7406355
just do it. cos it's not so much the recipe you use, as just learning how to handle the dough which comes with experience. i made so many hopeless looking doughs when i first started, but just put them in the oven and something edible will eventually appear (eg, i added way too much water once and it was more like batter, but after just pouring it into the tin, the final bread was still totally pleasant)
you'll work out which corners you can cut (like frankly i wouldn't worry too much about kneading at all), and overall bread is forgiving as fuck, unlike cakes
>>7406391
what oven temp do you bake at?

thank you
where do you access your spent beer brewing grains?
>>7410486
I brew the beer. Here's everything from that golden ale batch, including some of the grain that went into that bread.
Could I bake bread with just flour,water,olive oil and a pinch of salt?or is something missing?and how would I do that?

You can bake amazing bread with just flour, water, salt and yeast. You can use just flour, water and salt if you have a week or two to make a starter.

This is a sourdough I made some time ago, just flour, water and salt. Its levened with a starter that is just flour and water.

A poolish preferment white with a seam in the middle for breaking it into two.
>>7412597
This is just flour, water, salt and yeast.
>>7412592
Damn, just started my first sour dough starter. Hope the finished product turns out half as good as yours.

any tips on getting rid of rising air bubbles in ciabatta?
The method I use is an overnight ciabatta rise and bubbles always occur during baking even when i popped a majority of them
>>7412592
Could you give me some hints about the making process?What are some easy mistakes that I can avoid?
>>7402923
I didn't take a picture, but I failed my first try at baking Irish soda bread. I followed this recipe and it turned out with a thick crust, a really heavy, doughy interior, and not enough rise. Maybe I didn't shape it as thick as I should have? Overmixing?
How do I even figure out when I've mixed and kneaded the dough for this kind of bread enough? I just used a wooden spoon and my hands to do the manual work because I'm a poorfag with no stand mixer.

It is easy to do but a little complicated. get the book Flour, Water, Salt, Yeast by Ken Forkish. That is how I learned to make these. I downloaded in e book off of a torrent file.

mix flour and water let sit 30 min.
mix in salt and yeast
stretch and fold it a few times over the next hour and a half
let rise for about 12 hours
shape loaves and let proof about an hour
bake in screaming hot dutch oven or on a stone with steam.

Resulting beer. The elderberries really affected the color, but they added a nice subtle flavor. Turned out to be ~9% ABV.
