Charlie is well cared for and he's growing up nicely. He's spoken to kindly, and given a nicely warmed clean jar after his weekly feed. His flavour and aroma have developed very nicely. Just the right amount of sourness with a slightly sweet, nutty and earthy background giving a beautifully tasty slightly chewy loaf which sits well in the stomach and generates a feeling of happiness.

Charlie is fed once a week. After removing 250g for each loaf I am making I double the remainder to give me enough for the following week. Sometimes, if I bake two loaves Charlie is fed on two consecutive days to give enough for the next bake. the feed is 50% strong white flour, 50% Highland water.

작업방식

Charlie was born on 1st February 2018. He's a straightforward lad used for a bake of one or two loaves a week for my family. An unadulterated mix of pure water from the Scottish Highlands and strong white bread flour. At times Charlie is given a treat and the white flour at feeding time is spelt flour, Canadian flour, or locally milled Highland flour.
