An avid, ambitious homebrewer, I'm currently brewing on an all-electric system capable of 20+ gallon batches.

@spiceyokooko darn, it appears that page is no longer visible from the BestBuy site. Google must have found it behind the scenes. I'll look for a replacement one.

comment how many kWs does it take to bake a cake?
I agree with @Jefromi: as it stands, the question is unanswerable. Basically what you'd need to know is how long the oven will be on for, and how much energy the oven uses. We can't tell you either of these things. After that, it's just math.

+1 for fructooligosaccharides. Did you comment just so you could type that, @Aaronut? :)

Side note for newer bakers: it's always easier to add flour to a slack dough than add water to a dry dough. I always reserve some flour and make the dough wetter than I think it should be, then adjust during final kneading.

Yes, some more information would be helpful. When was the starter last fed? Was it good and active before using--doubled in size since the last feeding? What shape: sandwich loaf in a pan, baguette on a stone? How was the dough mixed and kneaded? How long was it kneaded for? How long was the first bulk rise? How long after shaping? What temperature?
