75% hydration for 9.6g flour sounds really extreme :) When I bake with only supermarket 10.4g flour (quite rarely though) I lower the hydration to 66%. But our all-purpose flour is much more white (which means it takes less water). And I don't use baskets for final proofing, just free-standing loafs, it is a much more demanding to loaf's strength :)

First of all, I want to thank you, Sune. You rock! I have learned a lot from you, and I watch out for your weekly videos. I've been looking forward to your VWG experiments because I use quite a bit of it in my baking. I live in a very remote area where it is hard to buy good flour. So, I mill all of my own grains. The downside of that is that when using strictly whole grain, it is hard to get the best gluten development. I don't sift the bran out and then add it back in as some others have recommended. But I have gotten some great results through longer autolyse and using VWG. For example, my go-to mix of flours is 60% hard white winter wheat at 13% protein, 20% hard red spring wheat at 13% protein, and 20% dark rye. I use 50-50 rye and hard white wheat starter at 100% hydration. The inoculation is 20%. Total hydration is 80% and salt at 2%. I calculate the VWG at 5% of the total flour used to make up my formula. If I wasn't using freshly milled hard white winter wheat, at 13%, commercial flour at the same protein content would work fine. But if I want to maintain the integrity and flavor of the whole grain, then the gluten strength can be problematic. To combat that, I autolyse the dough in the refrigerator 8-12 hours, which softens the bran particles and makes a big difference in getting the maximum gluten development. That and VWG has worked for me. I still get the incredible flavor from the fresh milled whole grains, with a nice open hole crumb. Perhaps you could experiment with using only fresh milled grain and using VWG to help with that. You also might want to experiment with fresh-milled whole grain and extended autolyse. Sometimes I feel like a doomsday prepper with all of my buckets of grains stacked in my kitchen, but the flavor of the bread I produce is off the charts. Looking forward to your future--experiment times!

VWG is probably the answer i've been looking for. I have had successful sourdoughs that turned out beautifully with massive oven spring but it was always hit or miss. I prefer high hydration and I had never taken protein content into consideration. What likely happened is with my successful ones in my experiments is that i probably used the just the right amount of water in my flour to match it's protein content. I'm hoping that this will allow me to achieve more consistent oven spring with stronger doughs, while I adjust the water levels accordingly.

Hey Sune, I have a real baking challenge for you. I stumbled upon an Ancient Egyptian sourdough bread called "Sun bread". It's been baked the same way in Egypt, using the same method for thousands of years. The bread uses a levain, autolyse, and an Egyptian tangzhong called asseeda. They put it in the sun instead of the fridge. They score it like the pharaohs used to score their bread, and bake it in clay oven. I've tried to make this bread many times without any success. It's difficult to get an English translation as all the YT videos seem to be in Egyptian only. If you manage to bake this bread, I'll put you on a pedestal and declare you the "King of all Breads".

Great stuff, Sune! I do something similar sometimes; I have a super high gluten bread flour (I suppose it's distinct to this VWG, but not sure by how much) which is great for spiking the reasonably lower protein flours I mostly can find here (Toronto). Works a treat even on flours that traditionally suck at gluten development (barley, rye, and kamut, in my personal experience). BUT! Add too much, and it definitely alters the flavour of the breads, and probably not for the better. So it's a trade-off/give and take thing.

I would imagine that this experiment confirms the adage that lower protein flours act as if the hydration is higher. So if you're working with a cheaper, lower protein flour due to circumstances, budget, or what have you, you might add vital wheat gluten to increase the protein as you recommend. Alternately, perhaps lowering the hydration to compensate might have similar results. It might be interesting to see an experiment to see if it's possible to get a similar loaf to your highest protein loaf using that no-name supermarket flour, to see if it's possible simply by altering hydration levels.

Hi there. Just a short Question: Is this a usual Glass Bowl you use for covering in the oven? Doesn´t the glass spring with this high temperature difference?

Awesome experiment. If I could only find vital wheat gluten. Have you done an experiment comparing kneading, stretch and fold, and no agitation at all until the shaping?

What about 100% vital flour? haha In the package it says 76% gluten, so it still has fermentable carbohidrates and some fiber. There has to be a point where trading gluten for carbohidrates is no longer beneficial though.

Thanks for make this experiments!!! It save us beginners a lot of time and not so much waist. Just have a question: if i use the extra added gluten, it means that i should elevate the hydration porcentaje? I just started a 60% hydration loaf with extra gluten added and it felt a bit hard. Still have time to add some extra water 😂 should I?

I know before I even watch the video that all your bread will be good and some very good, where as mine is ok but always very sticky what ever parameters I Change 😢

A quick question - I like the oval bannetons you are using. However, your link to "proofing baskets" only shows round bannetons. Do you have an affiliate link to oval bannetons?

What’s an approximate time for the bulk ferment? I don’t have a container where I could tell if it rose by 25%.

Did you add starter before your 1 hour rest? If not, when did you add it?

Hi, if I use whole wheat flour that has high protein content but it doesn’t develop high gluten. How do I use your calculator to determine how much vital wheat gluten to add?thanks.

Does VWG affect the the taste? I notice you didn't do a taste test.

Hi Sune, Could you do (or have you done) some experiment on roller versus stone-milled? I got some beautiful stone-ground organic flour a while back. It's been making tasty bread, but a quite flat, even after I tried adding extra gluten (could be I'm messing up though). I wonder if the type of milling just doesn't allow for a strong gluten network in this kind of flour. (I guess people tend to use some smaller percentage mixed in, but if using 100% stone-milled then you should expect a bit of a flatter loaf... can anyone confirm that?).

@@magnusrasmussen951 Good points, thanks. I got some from a local mill and I don't think it's easy to find out the protein content (I can ask them). Also kind of har to compare how fine the grind is. But yeah, maybe at some point I can try buying a sifter and experimenting with keeping out more of the bran.

I noticed you used 75% hydration in this test whereas you usually use 80%. Is that to compensate for lower gluten content or is it because of higher ambient humidity?
@Foodgeek4 жыл бұрын
It's because it's a very weak flour compared to the one I usually use. Plus it does not absorb nearly as much water either.

Hello Foodgeek!! I have a question. Have you ever froze the sourdough raw dough so you can bake it any time you want the freshest bread??
@dawnesmith-sliming70044 жыл бұрын
Bricolage This is an interesting question and I would like to know the answer. I have bought frozen bread before that is cooked for about 8 minutes before eating. I’m guessing one would have to at least partially cook the dough before cooling to room temp and freezing. I think if one froze the uncooked dough, thawed it and tried to bake it that oven spring would be affected. Or, possibly in giving the dough a second chance to rise up a bit you’d end up overfermented somehow.
