Just realized I've baked 200 loaves of sourdough and still can't score a decent ear
Counted my starter feedings last week and hit 200 bakes since 2021, but my bread still comes out flat half the time. Anyone else stuck at the same number of attempts with zero improvement?
Man, that's the weirdest thing about skills, right? You'd think the reps would add up, but sometimes it feels like you're just getting better at making the same mistake. I see it with folks at the gym all the time, they do the same lift for years and wonder why their form hasn't changed. Maybe the bar for "good enough" just moves the more you do something, so you never actually feel like you've landed it.
