I cobbled together several bits of information from different sources.  These in the picture are darker than I want and plan lower oven temp 450, dropping the pizza stone one level, and watching the time closely.  With that being said I have not made adjustments to the written recipe yet.  The recipe file is in Excel format and the recipe can be scaled.Jim's Ciabatta

Edit 4/21/2024: the recipe has been re-tested and updated
