I make bread all the time, I have never weighed out my water.
Anyways for those who don't know 1 gram of water equals 1 milliliter.
When it comes to the water flour ratio in bread making it's more of an estimate than exact measure, altitude,ambient humidity, flour type and age will all change the optimum ratio.
This recipe is a great starting point for beginners and learning to bake bread seems like a great stay at home activity it makes your home smell good too.
I suggest toasting your bread slices before eating if you are new to baking with yeast.
I have been meaning to try making my own bread. Now that I am on lockdown I have even more incentive. I like that all the recipes in the repo are FOSS. Got to break free from big bread!
Why do you recommend toasting the bread? Is it something related to the yeast or just the fact that my first few attempts may be a bit unpalatable?
