I think you have (again) solved my problem. My bread was rising so nicely I thought I would like a little bigger loaf - therefore I used the larger pan and it turned out runty. I could NOT believe that the small difference in dimensions could made the difference, but now I am a believer. I also read over all the other tips and am doing things correctly. Never hurts to refresh. Thanks SO much for always having helpful tips for us. A beautiful loaf of bread just makes me so happy.
