Thanks! I love 100% rye sourdough breads, but I hate making them. I'm not sure I get the hydration right. My dough always ends up very sticky and just an utter pain to get out of the kitchen machine and into the loaf pan.

    For wheat dough that may be true. This is just easy enough for me to handle that I do it at all.
    I love rye bread. I started with 100% rye sourdough, which is incredibly sticky, especially if it's even slightly over hydrated, and has virtually no gluten, so you can only bake it in a loaf pan. 40% spelt or wheat makes it just a little more well behaved.
