How do I make up to 12 loaves in a few hours with just ONE toaster oven in my extra small kitchen?
It’s all about stages & timing!
As I finish each blooming with the yeast, I mix in the flour and get it into the bowl to bulk rise.
Then I start the next blooming.
When it’s finished, I start making it for the next bulk rise (about an hour).
Get the next bloom going, then roll out the first bulk rise and get it into the pans to rise (30mins).
Get the bloom mix into the bulk rise stage, get the next bloom in and roll the next.
Move the risen loaves into the oven (30mins)
And then keep rotating!
Bloom takes about 10-15 mins depending how warm it is in here. Then mixing in the flour in stages and into a ball takes another 15mins. (Total 30mins)
Bulk rise is 30mins
Loaf rise in the pan 30mins
Bake in the oven 30mins
And cool on the rack after adding butter to soften the crust, and into the bags between each stage.
My own little assembly line that has allowed me to keep increasing the amount of loaves I can make each day.
Not to shabby for only having a toaster oven! While not every loaf is perfect for the ‘gram having them rise so beautifully but only so much oven height, it’s getting better bread into the bellies of everyone!
