» Proof Bread is a modern throwback to a way of life that values small-scale craftsmanship, local community, and creativity. We are a small group of passionate bakers working in our garage (thanks to cottage laws) which has been converted into a micro-bakery. Everything we bake is made by hand, from the best local ingredients, with no short cuts.

I am a Canadian, when younger I was ski guiding in the Swiss alps. We lived in a tiny Swiss village that has an ancient side to it with centuries-old chalets. The bakeries would put out their cooked sourdoughs to cool outside on window sills in sub-zero temperatures to make the crust even harder. The bread was fantastic but you could hammer a nail with the crust, while still being super soft and tasty inside.

Keep it up! that is my next sooner plan, and that is to open a humble small/medium artisan bakery whereby I will leave my corporate job I had for 20 years + - thank you for the inspiration!

These days you have to put in a lot of extra effort to keep up with the machines. In my country, Germany, which is well known for its bread, a ton of bakeries had to close in the last decades. They just can't keep up with the supermarkets who are also offering plenty of bread of okay quality. The deciding factors are that it's way cheaper than bakeries and you don't have to additionally walk to a bakery but can get it right along with your groceries. It's a sad reality, that most people don't take the time anymore and pay for the extra quality which will lead to the extinction of quality bakeries obviously. Now, I can tell you that it's not entirely hopeless as many are realizing that some of our most important culture is getting destroyed by the big players and a few new bakeries are emerging who refuse to use additional ingredients like this one. It's gaining some traction here and there and people appreciate that you can buy bread again that won't make your stomach turn. Whether that's enough, I don't know, I think only if they never give up and don't mind having no days off. As for the customers, most of them stay being cheap. People have been conditioned to spend only when it seems cheap, look at Amazon, it's never gonna lose its power anymore to some stores out there, even if they were giving it their best. Now everyone just gets it from the provider who can give it all, that's the times we live in.

Hi! I am your fan from Russia. My name is Evgeny. I always follow your videos about bread. I write down all the details of the work, but there are a few questions, can I get an answer to them? 1) how long does it take for the dough to stand in the basket? 2) how does bread not become flat from so much water? 3) 15 baking attempts, took into account all the mistakes, corrected them every time and baked again, eventually had to add less water to keep the bread in shape, how much water do you use per 1 kg of dough?4) what kind of starter culture do you use, its proportions? I'm sorry for my English

@duartecardoso2420 2 жыл бұрын

American flours are ridiculously stronger then european flours, meaning they can hold a lot more water. For example, the flour I use can go to around 72% hydration and keep a decent shape, if I try following some of these American recipes my bread becomes a pancake. The important part is making sure you're gluten is well developed and learning from your flour how much water it can take.

@@duartecardoso2420Thank you for your answer, Russia is rich in high-quality raw materials, agriculture is developed, but all good things are imported. That's why you really have the best quality! I even have a car from America. I will try to buy good flour and I will try again 🤝

You go to market once or twice a week. I know because I did that. Also, bakers used to have trucks they sell from on a daily basis. That goes for European cities and most villages. Really small hamlets had community bake houses where inhabitants brought their dough for the week's eating plus some extra for the poor that was put out for the taking. Larger farms had their own baking kitchens that supplied the farm on a daily basis and crofts had masoned outside ovens to be used for baking in the summer or generally warm days and baking ovens in the main room fireplace for baking bread in the winter or whenever the house needed heating and the crofters needed bread. Only ships would take hardtack to a weeks long voyage. Those huge loaves you are thinking of where usually consumed within two or three days on a croft and several of then would go per day on the average to largish farm.

Hey guys! Great video again. We are very new to the bakery game here over in Bristol UK. Do you think you can touch down on cleaning in your next video? Would be great to get some insight into how you clean flour up and what equipment you use. Also do you run any chemicals through the drains for the added dough that may enter them? Much love from across the pond!

@seattlerinis8249 2 жыл бұрын

Has anyone figured out Proof's flour blend? I know Jon has dropped hints in various videos.. I think Proof uses some Central Milling bread flour, as much as half the blend or more. I just bought some white sonora. I buy Central Milling all purpose from Costco. It makes decent bread mixed with some fresh milled hard red.
