18. I'm trying again tonight.
Edited on Wed Apr-29-09 10:06 PM by eridani
I think that the dough hook doesn't do the job completely for kneading. I kneaded it by hand for ~10 minutes after mixing the dough, and got nothing resembling a thin translucent layer. The dough just tore. I went at it all told for ~45 minutes. The dough got more stretchable, but never approached 1/2 inch. I decided to hell with it--I'll just let it rise and see what happens. After an hour or so, I'll put it in the refrigerator overnight.

Oh, and I added 1/2 cup of gluten, and used 1 1/2 tablespoons of yeast.
