Baking using the oven probe

100% 3/2 Doves Farm strong white bread flour/Doves farm malthouse bread flour
70% Evian mineral water
3% Allinson dried active yeast
2% Tate and Lyle caster sugar
2% Sea Salt Co. 

Not sure why it's taken me so long to use the Heston probe! Interestingly I took it out at 85 and it kept on going until 95.

The dough actually felt quite dry for 70% hydration; perhaps the malthouse can take a bit of water? So I gave it a bit of a spray between kneads and sprinkled in some poppy seeds. (I meant to put them in the flour at the start.)

Very tasty bread, good texture. The malthouse is excellent.
