82% Hydration Spelt and T85 Loaf
This is a slight variation of a spelt dough from the new Tartine no 3 Book. I used less water then recommended and a different mix of flours. It was a tad more sour than I prefer....next time I will only retard the rise for 6 hours instead of 8. Crumb was open,fully gelatinized and super moist, crust was thin and shattered when cut.

Well done and love the bold bake!
Yeah, that one is a winner. Well done!
Looks great. How about a shot of your great looking crumb??
thanks guys. i didnt manage to take a great picture of the crumb before it was devoured. Next post will have much more photos of the process and crumb!
crumb was gelatinized, moist, and full of smaller holes with a few large ones. It wasn't my most open crumb by any means but for a 40+% whole grain loaf, not bad.
What is CM Beehive? I don't recognize the name.
its their all purpose flour. its also sold under the whole foods organic 365 brand
