Notes
The best tool you can get yourself for bread baking is a good Bakers Math Kitchen Scale. Bread making is based on percentages and weights (and a big learning curve). If trying to measure flour using dry measuring cups, very often the weight of the flour will be quite off.If you do not own a cast iron Dutch oven, Cloche or a Bread Dome Baker, you can simply preheat the oven with a pizza stone on the middle shelf and then use a roasting pan to put on top after placing the proofed down on the stone.
How to Proof Dough in Instant Pot Lux.
Add one cup of water to cooking pot and place a stainless steel trivet into the pot.
Place container with the dough on top of the trivet.
Close the lid and push the "Warm" button. After 10 minutes, hit cancel.
After 3.0, remove lid and check that the dough has risen to double the size. If dough needs to rise more, replace lid and check after 30 minutes.
