Almost a personal best

The dough for this morning's 462nd batch of bread weighed in at 5lbs 9oz, equalling the best so far of batch 454 on 2nd February and batch 456 on 10th February. So not a personal best, but trying.

5lbs 9oz is three ounces more than the nominal weight of flour and water combined - although room for manoeuvre is provided by traces of yeast, salt and oil.

Heritage balance scales anonymous, with no maker's mark that I can find.
