Never apologize for your German English. Your speech is clear and easily understood. Your speech is near native English speaker!

Great video! One thing about the fermentation time. 6-12 hours might be fine for European weather, where ambient temperature is around 22 C; but where I live, under the Tropics where average temperature is 30-33 C, fermentation happens twice as fast. More than 3 hours and the yeast starts destroying the gluten networks. So ambient temperature is an important factor when trying to build the dough structure.

Your camera perspectives and clean audio are great for learning. I am using your videos extensively to help me create better bread, and I feel very confident your tips are working!!

Vielen dank!
After my 7th failure today, I decided to give up on sourdough. You saved my day (and the sourdough baking dreams I had!)

Every amateur bread baker's essential pointers in this one! Thank you!

Thank you for the table relating protein % to range of hydration. It makes it much easier to make the adjustments.

[fbi-sama]

Thank you so much for the protein diagram. No one ever mentioned that about protein on flour. No wonder my 65% hydration was so difficult to work with, the flour had only 10% protein

Finally I’m starting to understand bakers percentages and feeling like experimenting with my hydration. I just really kneed to work on my conversions for kilos to grams lol

Ich bin nur durch den Algorithmus auf dich gestoßen (ergo das ist mein erstes Video).
Sau stark, wie simple und informationsreich du die Hilfen erklärst.
du hast einen neuen Subscriber👍🏽

You’re a bread nerd!
I love the content and information. I have been baking some baguette type of bread, the Mexican variation of it called bolillo. I always failed in the kneading technique even when I followed the recipes but with your info I was able to do it perfectly! Thanks 🙏🏽

Thank you Hendrik. One more awesome video added to my download collection! This one is a real gem!
I still don't know how you do it, but you somehow read people's minds, and show us what we've been wondering about in silence.
Thank you my friend. You never cease to amaze me!😊 🤩😛

It's a very, very interesting video! Thank you so much!

[braddixon]

Wow, excellent tips! I've been working with high hydration doughs lately, and they are a battle, your tips will certainly help. I'll also be remembering these for my pizza doughs this summer.

That last tip just saved my current batch. Thank you so much 🎉

[quanang]

The best video. He covers every problem I have when making dough. I mean, who can love kneading, when it requires a 15 minutes straight of struggling?

Love ❤

[cleandude]

Thanks Henrik great video like all that you do!🙏🙏🙏

[ladauphine]

Thank you for these precious tips and advise. 🙏💗

[mollyvb]

These were great tips. I will try a couple of them tomorrow. What I am finding is that using any flour on my hands during the stretch and fold or on my counter does not give me the bread texture that I love. I only use a small amount of water every time I work with the dough. For me personally it works out so much better.
I am however going to add the water slowly when baking tomorrow and see if that makes a difference for me. Thank you again for the great advice!

Thank you for this video! I make a pretty good loaf of sourdough bread, but with your tips from this video I will move to a better sourdough loaf. I have learned so much from you!

[maxy]

Thank you very much for this video. I have learned a lot. Sometimes my bread is very good, sometimes it's not. I realized that occasionally I make some of the mistakes you listed, especially with water. I think I will do much better from now ;-)
