     @mhamzahkhan Unless you were aiming for an, umm, dark coffee roast style then yes. Something is off. Either time or too hot.

     @chris It was supposed to be 200 °C for 40 minutes.

     I have a feeling something might be wrong with my oven because that's whats I've always done (https://intahnet.co.uk/deck/@mhamzahkhan/112113763731112658), and it's never been an issue, but this week I accidentally burnt two things, (First a store bought frozen pizza earlier this week, and now this sour dough loaf).

     I feel like it might be getting hotter than I want it to?

     @mhamzahkhan what temp and time?

     For a sourdough with wheat and rye I'd go 180 C for 55Min at most.

     I am German. We do know how to make bread ;)

     @pdiff1 I'm waiting for it to cool down to see the inside. I'm hoping it's OK.

     I don't add sugar/honey.

     @mhamzahkhan I bet the inside is fine. Many bakers prefer darker crusts anyway. Did it inadvertently have more sugar/honey than usual (if you add that)?

     Inside is fine. Maybe slightly undercooked, because I panicked when I saw the top burning and took it out slightly early, but still absolutely edible and tasty!

     I has a good chewiness to it, and I'm really happy with the flavour.

     I'm disappointed about the outside being a bit burnt. It's not so burnt that it's not enjoyable. I know some people enjoy that level of toasted, it's just not what I was going for.
