Higher hydration doughs are definitely trickier to handle.
I read Ken Forkish' book and then hacked his method to suit my lifestyle - mainly lower hands-on time / less fussiness. I typically let it go for 24 hours and manage temperature during fermentation & proofing. I have to adapt to the season.
Today I'm going to use the cooking water from a batch of chickpeas/garbanzos to boost protein content.
Happy baking!
