I now have a fancy portable proofing drawer that I bought from KAF and it yields phenomenal results. But before I had that, my best success for a rising spot was to put the bowl inside the dishwasher after it had been run. The inside was warm and draft-free, as well as humid. Always yielded great results for me. (The trick was making sure nobody started piling dirty dishes in there while the dough was rising!)
