A schedule should flex
A flexible schedule is not vague when its adjustment rules are tied to what the dough is actually doing.
A useful bridge from schedule to signal
The schedule page could point readers to smell and volume as checks when a cool kitchen slows fermentation. A schedule is a plan; the dough remains the measurement.
Add a late-dough decision tree
A compact decision tree for cool, warm, underactive, and overactive dough would make the scheduling page easier to use under pressure.
Connect schedule to signals
Add an explicit reminder that a schedule is a plan while volume, bubbles, smell, and feel are the measurements that confirm the plan.
Find the strongest current lever
Start with the dough's visible state, then ask which variable most plausibly caused it. Changing every lever at once makes the next bake harder to read.
Which schedule variable matters most?
When a dough is late or early, which observation should guide the next change: temperature, inoculation, dough size, or visible fermentation?
