Hi Lilly,
What recipe are you making that says to retard after 75% proofing? We would recommend to turn it around a bit and put the loaf in the fridge much sooner and if needed proof the next morning at room temp. This way there is far less chance of over-proofing.

My refrigerator is very cold. My shaped loaves still overproof overnight and do not rise well. I am wondering if instructions to get shaped loaves 75% proofed before going in is the issue. It is hard to know what a partially proofed loaf is supposed to look like and feel like before going in. Also can retarding bulk get the flavor enhancement with shaping and rising done the next morning?
