The refrigeration time is considered the first rise. To avoid future bread flops, I've rounded up a few of the most common reasons your bread isn't getting the right lift. Your yeast is old. The water is too hot. It's too cold inside. You added too much salt.
You added too much sugar. You added too much flour. You're using whole grains. The crust is too dry. Let the dough rise in a warm , draft-free location. The oven is an ideal place for rising. In a yeast dough , if the first rise is going a lot faster than you think it should, taste the dough. If it seems a little flat, you can add the salt and knead it in after the first rise, before you shape the dough.
Buy some fresh yeast and mix up a "sponge," a small portion of dough , using about one-third of the flour and all the yeast called for in your original recipe. Let the sponge rise once on its own, then cut it into dozens of small pieces. Let the dough rise overnight in your fridge and bake it the next day. When you subject the dough to the heat of the oven the air in it starts to expand, causing the bread to rise.
If your dough is not scored then it will crack in the most unexpected places because the air is trying to get out. Also, scoring ensures that you won't get large pockets of air in your bread. Bread sough or loaf collapses During baking, the loaf collapses. Oven temperature that's too low. This means the dough rises to its maximum, then collapses before it gets hot enough to set.
Or, dough could have been over- risen. Can you let bread rise too long? Category: food and drink desserts and baking. Over-proofed loaves of bread have a gummy or crumbly texture. How do you know if bread is over proofed? How do you know when to stop kneading dough? Sure; but it's easier to let the dough rise twice in the bowl, rather than twice in the pan.
And what about that over-risen loaf that went right into the oven without being deflated and reshaped? Because the bread had risen so much before it hit the oven's heat, there was no more capacity for additional expansion in the oven. It rose; it fell; it collapsed. Still tastes good, but not a pretty picture. So, can over-proofed dough be saved?
Simply follow the steps above, and you can turn this potential culinary disaster into a perfectly lovely loaf!

I was able to rescue some overproofed rustic sourdough bread dough. Maybe it helped that this bread had some commercial yeast. The other thing that might have helped was that the overproofing happened at the bulk stage, so I gave it another rise before the shaping stage. Anyway, the bread turned out fine. Thank you, King Arthur! I just encountered this very situation today for the first time and I panicked. Went straight to your blog looking for advice, hoping to save the loaf. Thank you for post.
A short time later everything is as it should be. KAF rocks. Thanks a million PJ!! Whew, you save my bread rolls recipe for sure!! Looked all over the internet to see if this was safe to do and glad to see that is!!
My stove ran out of gas just before I places them in the oven. Happy it wasn't during the baking!! I had to place them in the fridge but they are like 3 times bigger than necessary even with plastic wrap over the pans, will reshape them first thing in the morning after the gas truck arrives. My last two loaves have definitely been overproofed, but not puffy - at the end of the proofing cycle, they have been bubbly on the surface and quite soft, more like a ciabatta dough - definitely can't just punch down and reproof.
The first loaf was a white flour, the second whole-wheat. Any suggestions as to how I can fix this? Darn, should have read this before sticking my over proofed loaf in the oven. My bread came out exactly like your over proofed example.
Oh well, lesson learned.. Haven't cut into it yet The dry yeast is hard to find and so expensive to me My question is can I save a piece of my rise dough as the starter for my next bread?
You can let your bread rise in the fridge overnight. The cooler temperatures will slow down the yeast, protecting your dough from over-proofing. You may even want to give it some extra time to finish rising, if necessary. You have to protect the gluten structure at this stage. For the second rise, you want to be sure your dough has plenty of room to expand and is kept warm and moist.
You can purchase proofing baskets and bowls designed specifically for proofing bread, or even a specialized bread maker with a proofing mode. If you want your dough to rise faster, the most common and easiest solution is to increase the heat surrounding your dough. Warmer temperatures will activate your yeast more. You can also add a touch of sugar to the water to feed the yeast.
For completed dough, you can warm it in the microwave very briefly for a maximum of 20 seconds at a time. While proofing pizza dough may have a longer window, if your dough proofs for more than 3 days, the yeast will essentially starve and start fermenting your dough.
Over-proofing pizza dough also results in a flat, dense crust because the gluten relaxes too much, breaking down the internal structure. Most professional pizza makers will proof their dough for a maximum of 24—48 hours.
