Every time I bake the pain de mie, it sinks in the middle and the crumb, especially in the middle, is very coarse. The taste is fine, but I really don't like that texture in the middle. Any ideas on the problem or the solution? Thanks! It sounds like your dough is a bit too wet, or that your yeast is giving out too soon. Give us a call on the Baker's Hot line and we'll problem solve together. 800-827-6836. Mary @ KAF
