35 American Culinary Federation: Baking Fundamentals © 2007 Pearson Education. Upper Saddle River, NJ All Rights Reserved Troubleshooting Bread Problems ProblemSolution Volume Poor volumeMix dough longer, soften dough, allow dough to age properly Volume too largeHeat oven properly, add salt, decrease proofing Flavor and Taste Poor flavor Check formula balance, check condition of flour, decrease dough mixing time Poor taste Check quality of ingredients, correct fermentation, use clean baking pans Keeping Quality Poor qualities Under-baked bread, oven temperatures too low, dough is too warm, wrapping bread when still warm
