I am struggling to get a good texture in my loaf - any pro tips?
I thought maybe I was over-kneading, so tried less. Throught maybe under-yeasting, so tried more. Always get the same result. Bread tastes nice, has good crust but only get little tiny bubbles in the 2nd prove after it goes in the loaf tin, doesn't rise much, and it's quite dense.

Sounds like you might be over kneading it before the second prove.

Yeah I know, but I don't do much before the 2nd prove. Just roll the dough into a bit of a sausage and fold into 3rds and plonk it in the loaf tin (as described in Bread Matters book). Maybe I'm just heavy handed?
