Hi Jill! You can certainly experiment with that but it might take some trial and error because while putting dough in the fridge will slow down the fermentation, it can also bring out acetic acids which are sour in flavor. Usually, we suggest doing the larger bulk fermentation on the counter and then shaping the bread and letting the shaped loaves slowly rise in the fridge overnight. Happy experimenting!
