Hi PJ! I am using SAF and King Arthur Flour. I measured my salt according to the recipe and the dough rises properly. After slashing, it deflates. I may need to check the oven as you suggested because it seems the spring just isn't anything like the rise shown on the blog. Slash quickly - don't fuss over each roll, as by the time you're done, the first ones will have deflated a lot. And be sure to put the rolls directly into the oven - once you ascertain your oven is indeed accurate, I think this will help. One more thing - if the rolls have risen too much, they won't have much oven spring. So don't let them rise to their "ultimate" height before slashing, OK? Good luck - PJH
