And the pan holds the heat a lot better.

Bob,

Looks awesome.

My own sourdough improved when I bought Ken Forkish's book; Flour Water Salt Yeast.

His technique and instruction is great. And the story of his journey at the begining of the book isn't half bad either.

I've not had a bad loaf yet following his instructions.
