It is important that you not base your rising time on a certain time period
given in a recipe. Instead give the dough all the time it needs for the
final rise. If you were going strictly by a given time, it is quite
possible that rising longer will produce a lighter bread. Oven readiness is
something you must learn by appearance and feel.

Thanks Janet,

I will certainly play around a bit and see how it goes. I was going to
make up some bread today but couldn't manage to get to it. But when I
do I will let every know how I managed.

Again for anyone who gave honest advice.

THANKS

Cheers
Julie
