Put the yeast in a small bowl, add the warm water, and whisk vigorousl for 30 seconds. The yeast should dissolve in the water and the mixture should foam. If it doesn't and the yeast granules float, the yeast is “dead" and should be discarded. Begin again with a fresh amount of yeast and water.

Combine the flour and malt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook

With the mixer running on the lowest speed, pour in most of the ice rater, reserving about 2 tablespoons, followed by the yeast-water nixture. Pour the reserved water into the yeast bowl, swirl it around dislodge any bits of yeast stuck to the bowl, and add to the mixer. lix for about 15 seconds, stop the mixer, and add the poolish or tiga.

Continue to mix the dough at the lowest speed for about 1 minute, until most of the dough comes together around the hook. Stop the mixer.
