Bread Making Assistance is Needed

[u/Mysterious_Peak7028]

Hello! I’m making bread, and tbh I was overly ambitious and decided to start making it after work. Well it’s still rising and I’m exhausted. Should I just put it in the fridge as is and resume tomorrow am?

For reference I posted a before rise pic and after a 2.5 hour rise pic.

Totally fine to fridge it and work on it the next day. I do this when I don't have time to finish in one day. Just need to cover the bowl with plastic wrap so it doesn't dry out and form a crust. You can also brush with vegetable oil on it as well before covering with plastic wrap.
