The biggest factor was lowering the hydration from 75% to 66%. I also timed my bulk fermentation so that I put it in the refrigerator just before going to bed, to minimize the risk of overproofing. I think this is the first loaf that didn’t overproof on me.

Looks great!
I'm also getting the best results (so far) with low hydration doughs
