Frikin delish. Sour flavor with the hint of wheat is 🔥

I did change the recipe to ~55% whole wheat but kept the 70% hydration. The crust was a little hard and I didn't get as much of a rise as desired but that could be because of the change in flour type but not hydration level. People were very pleased!

Very nice whole wheat bread. Has a nice chewy texture, and not dry. I cut it into 2 smaller loaves before shaping the final two times. Baked individually. Roughly 1/2'd the cooking time. (20 min lid on/ 10 min lid off) Came out just right.
