This bread is a bit too dense for my taste. I prefer a lighter, airier bread.

The recipe was easy to follow, but the bread didn't rise as much as I expected. It still tasted good, but it wasn't as fluffy as I would have liked.

I followed the recipe exactly and the bread turned out dense and heavy. Not sure what went wrong.
