I've been using an electric conventional oven for years and have always had great luck with baking bread. We recently bought a Samsung gas range wirh a convection oven, and it does almost everything beautifully, but I've not had any luck with bread in it. My loaves don't raise like they do in the electric oven, and they're almost always drier. I've checked the temperatures of both ovens and they're within a couple of degrees of each other. I've tried convection and non-convection, with and without baking stones, with and without a water pan to create steam and I just can't get satisfactory results. Any suggestions?
