Red Bread !

[Ypedal]

Last week while making a fresh loaf of white bread, multi tasking and siphoning 2 batches of red from primary fermenter to carboy ..

Looking at the yeast filled sludge in the bottom of my bucket...

And the bread making equipment already on the counter...

I added a tiny bit of quick rise yeast but not much..

I mixed the entire dough batch from the bowl, so i would not stain my plank..

It doubled nicely in 30 minutes !

Until i took the first bite, lightly buttered, i had not considered the Bentonite !!!!!.... ewwwwww... it's like chewing a sandwich you dropped on the beach for an hour... fine grit...

FAIL...

Kudos for trying! Definitely outside the box

Thinking about not using Bentonite next batch I make...

Serves you right for trying to make a communist bread.

Oh, I did not anticipate that ending! C'est dommage! I thought it was going to be a wine, errr... I mean "a win."
