Finally, I had my first semi-success with whole wheat bread. This is a whole wheat honey and walnut loaf. A little dense, but the crumb was nice and consistent. I think the density issue was caused because I let it over rise twice, punched it down, and then did not let it rise enough right before baking. I also think it was exacerbated by the fact that it was 100% whole wheat. I am on a bit or a health kick so I am trying to avoid the white bread as much as possible.
