Sometimes it's the journey, not the destination.

Getting ready to undertake a 30 loaf experiment over the next 15 weeks or so using different flours and  combinations. I plan to use the same base formula and technique through out the entire series keeping everything as identical as possible. I'm not really sure what I'm looking for but sometimes it's all about the journey, not the destination.
I'm going to be keeping a journal on every batch and I will post those as well as pictures. 
For your own sourdough loaf record copy go to:
