Appreciation post: The bakery in Savannah that still uses a brick oven from 1910
Visited Back in the Day Bakery last month and watched them pull loaves from that old brick oven, and the crust had a color and crunch I just can't get from my home oven - has anyone else found a place with original equipment that made you rethink your whole setup?

That brick oven at Back in the Day is basically a celebrity at this point. I tried replicating the results at home with a pizza steel and a spray bottle, ended up with bread that looked like a sad, pale moon. Meanwhile their loaf comes out looking like it just finished a spa day. It's wild how that old oven just has some secret sauce we can't buy at Williams Sonoma. I'm convinced that thing is possessed by a friendly ghost who really loves baking. My oven is just possessed by the spirit of burned toast and regret.
