Baked in a Romeratopf clay baker at 425F covered 1st 20 minutes then uncovered until interior temperature reaches 210F
Totals
1075 g flour (75 from starter)
775 g water (75 from starter)
22 g salt (at 2%)
1872 g final dough weight

The dough was the consistency that I have come to expect from ciabatta so it was tough to score them but I like the pattern they developed during the bake. The crumb was a nice creamy white with lots of holes and the smell of the loaf is what sourdough bread should smell like. The flavor was tangy but not too tart even with a 12 hour bulk ferment.
Overall I am very pleased with this loaf.
