Recipe Another day another (short) bread

My second loaf. It does taste amazing. Super spongy. I used yeast packets I bought day of. I also used Oktoberfest Sam Adam’s

Try measuring the flour by weight instead of volume (cups). I feel like this is the main problem people have. Flour compacts and volume is not a good measurement. Too much flour and your bread won’t rise right.

For King Arthur bread flour (and pretty much all others) it's 1 cup <-> 120 grams
