It would help to know the percentage of yeast in the formula. If you plan on retardation, you might want to reduce the amount. As well, you should be very sure of the temperature of your refrigerator. The dials and such inside usually aren't all that accurate. Invest in a good quality thermometer, about $25 (not the cheapies from a box store). Ideal retardation temp is 39-40 F.

1 kg flour,680gr water,5gr dry yeast,20gr salt,2gr malt and the refrigerator is 4 celsius after step by step what i should do?
I'd reduce the yeast to 4 grams as a starting point.
