    This is all the reasons I don’t measure. I bake by feel. Protein content in the flour and to many other variables, I just adjust stuff till it feels right and proof

      Yeah when I’ve truly messed up baking it’s usually because I ignored my guts and just followed the recipe.

      A recipe is a great guide, but unless you’re using the exact exact same ingredients in the exact exact same conditions, then you’re going to want to improvise.
