What went well?

The dough was easy to handle, the crumb is OK considering it is 100% whole wheat, and it is super crusty.

What didn't?

It kind of flattened out in the oven. I'd like more oven spring and better shape (less flat)

Honestly, this looks like the best 100% WW loaf I've seen in stores (Gjusta in LA), so you might not be able to get much better shape. Did you like the taste? I can never decide if I like it better than just 50/50 or whatever.

Haha thanks Fred. Taste was great! I haven't made a 50/50 in a while though, but when I restock on white flour I'll try it out for comparison.
