Vent: My sourdough loaves were always flat and dense for months, but after I started using a cheap digital scale from the kitchen store for my flour and water, the difference was like night and day.
I realized my 'cup' of flour could vary by over 50 grams, and once I got the hydration right by weight, my loaves finally had that open crumb and good oven spring I'd been trying for since January.

Whoa, over 50 grams just from how you scoop a cup?! That's insane, no wonder it was such a struggle. I never would have guessed it could be off by that much. It's crazy how one little cheap tool can fix everything like that. Congrats on finally getting that perfect loaf!

Honestly that 50-gram difference seems like a lot for just scooping flour.
