I used powdered instant. The recipe said the dough could go for as long as 7 days. I don’t have a lot of experience with freeform bread so I guess what I’m saying is I don’t really know which problem it might be! Thanks for the thoughts :)
You can let it rise in the fridge for a couple days but I don’t really think 7 days is reasonable. My starter gets too weak and inconsistent if I feed it only once a week and keep it in the fridge so I wouldn’t recommend more than 48 hrs and even then it’s probably sensitive to what shelf you got it on. Maybe I’m slow but it took me 3-5 years to really figure out how to get decent bread it really is quite hard but seems so easy once you get there.
