We have only used bought bread mixes ourselves. We use the Laucke Flour Mills brand from Wollies or the like. They have a good range of mixes as well.

The Boss does a couple of midnight to 6 a.m. shifts at our local bakery and she gets the baker to make me up 3 or 4 mixes (compatible to my loaf tin) which I salt down in the Waeco until I'm ready to use one. just a matter of letting it thaw and rise in a bit of morning sun before it goes into the c/o.

Like Jeff said, Laucke Flour Mills have some ripper mixes, especially the scones, of which I use very regularly.

Cheers

Never tried salting down bread dough.

These photos are of my earlier goes at making bread in camp ovens. The bread is Dark Rye from a bread mix. I buy it from a shop that makes up their own mix.

Laukes worked best for us also

But now, a simple damper suits our needs.

Don't forget to try the Laucke scone mix. I'm sure you'll be a convert.
