Don’t let it rise before
It will rise a lot even while in the refrigerator
Make sure you leave plenty of room for it to rise. You can put into garbage bag on a large empty shelf or space in the refrigerator.
Punch it down when you take it out tom and let it rise 1-2 hours and make sure dough doubles in size and is no longer cold when you braid. If it is cold when you braid allow it to rise a little extra. At least another hour after braiding. It sometimes gets a yeasty sour taste when you do this method.
