I have wanted to try this recipe but I have the pan that is the bottom portion of the pain de mie pan. It is the one listed for gluten free breads and looks like the same pan, without the lid. I wanted to try using a heavy baking sheet (it was the side of a battleship in its former life) for a lid. Those yeasties are strong! The dough raised the sheet and I put the lid to a cast iron pan on top and it blew that off! The baking sheet wasn't evenly on the pan so it tilted and I have a semi-pan de mie loaf. So, the experiment didn't work but the bread is wonderful! A bit oddly shaped, but it makes a great peanut butter sandwich.
