We want to start the week off, grateful ❤️
Some days are hard.
Long hours. Heavy loads. Doubts that creep in.
But then…
A smile.
A thank you.
Someone light up because they finally "got it"—or just felt seen.
That’s what keeps me going.
This isn’t just a business.
It’s about people.
And seeing you grow, learn, or just feel a little brighter because of what we do?
That’s worth every stage fright and long nights. 💛
Purpose

Let’s look at the photo and see what clues tell us it didn’t proof long enough.
1. Big, Uneven Holes in the Bread
- What you see: Inside the loaf, there are some very large holes, kind of like caves, and they’re not spread out evenly. The rest of the bread looks a bit dense.
- What it means: When dough is underproofed, it hasn’t developed enough small, even bubbles. Then, when you bake it, the remaining yeast gets a burst of energy from the heat and makes gas quickly—but in a rush, so it creates a few big holes instead of lots of even ones.
2. The Crumb Feels Tight in Some Spots
-What you see: Around the edges and in some parts, the bread looks compact, like it's squeezed together.
-What it means: When dough proofs properly, the gluten (the stretchy network in the dough) relaxes and holds the bubbles nicely. If it doesn't get enough time, the dough stays tight and stiff.
Common Reasons for Underproofing
👎You didn't let it rise long enough.
👎The room was too cold (yeast works slower when it's chilly).
👎Your starter wasn't very active, so it didn't produce enough gas.
👎Maybe you shaped it tightly, which can make it harder for the dough to expand.
