Veru nice, any ideas on how yto not burn the bottom ? I thought raising it off the base may help, maybe a cake tin or something?
That's what I was thinking , any ideas welcome , I did some pizza too , they didn't catch as we're not in as long . Have to say they taste better than any I have bought .
That should work. Get it off the black surface and it should react the same as if in any oven. I'd be interested to hear the results from anybody actually trying it.
Looks tasty 
Use the lid of a sweet tin or similar on some pebbles to raise it off the bottom

Hi, your bread looks great and great mod for the dutch oven. Would you mind sharing your recipe?
Thank you for doing the bold boule'd experiments. You're crafting some of the most attractive artisan bread that I've seen.
Particularly outside of a bakery.
Question: How did you judge the end of the baking process?

At the moment I'm still experimental , using an unleavened recipe or sometimes a pre prepared mix , trying to find the right combo . Similar with the cooking process, trial and error I'm afraid . Taste wise pretty good , all the better whilst still warm .
Only downside so far is making sure inside is properly cooked before the outside , I think I'll try slightly smaller loaves next time . I'm In the process of completing a wood fired oven now the weather is improving so may be trialling a new method soon.
