What went well?

First bread bake experiment in the anova, got great spring and amazing crust.

What didn't?

Crumb feels too spongey but might just be underbaked.

Other notes

This was my first bake with the anova combi oven. It's a little underbaked because our normal oven runs about 25-50 degrees too hot, not used to temperature being as advertised! Pretty good oven spring in the anova though, with the humidity control around 70%

Spongey crumb

Wow! Great scoring. I think the crumb sponginess you're seeing is the result of overproofing – did you change much about that part of the process?
