ESTIMATED BULK COMPLETION
—

The clock begins when starter is added to the autolysed dough—not after kneading or folds.

Planning estimate only; use dough rise and structure to decide when bulk is finished.

    About the fermentation estimate

    The estimate uses a six-hour reference at 78°F, 20% starter and 30% whole wheat, adjusted heuristically for temperature, starter quantity, and flour mix. It is not a validated prediction. Starter activity and actual dough rise matter more than the clock.
