... very good!  The crumb on mine look identical, by comparison, but I like mine baked a bit darker - personal preference.  Pat yourself on the back and you'll feel a bit of mine there too, KUDOS!

with you a bit darker is better. Next time longest final proffing.

Thank you

So far I have never done baguettes but I hope my first ones will be baked before Christmas. Yours just look great and especially for the first time.

Happy baking, Joze
