Hi Mindy, we apologize for any confusion. You'll want to let the dough rise for about an hour, at which point it should have increased in size and have become quite puffy. This might mean a full double in size, but if it's been about an hour and you've seen a notable increase, you can move on to the next step. On the other hand, if your dough is in a cold kitchen or your ingredients were cold and there's barely any change after an hour, you'll want to extend that initial rest. The flavor will be more yeasty if you let it rise more completely before putting it in the fridge. Feel free to experiment, adjusting your method slightly to get the flavor you're looking for. Happy baking! Kye@KAF
