Title: Wholemeal Bread
Post by: meganjane on July 30, 2012, 01:21:22 pm
I recently held a Bread Making Day at my place for our local CWA of which I'm Secretary.

I invited an acquaintance who I know grows her own wheat for her bread. She brought along her precious electric mill and ground the wheat before making the most fantastic loaf of bread that I've ever tasted! Her recipe did include gluten flour as the wheat they grow isn't high protein.

The loaf was as light as a feather with a beautiful crumb and great crust. I devoured a whole loaf in only three days! I've tried grinding wheat in the TMX, cooling it, grinding it again, but it's just not the same as the flour from a proper mill. I've been looking at them and I'm going to save up for this one: Billy 100 (http://www.skippygrainmills.com.au/electric/billy100.htm). We're growing some hard wheat this year, so hopefully I'll be able to make my own flour and make my bread in the TMX.

MJ,   I know what you are talking about as I was  given some home mill ground flour.  It was very special.

As you have a ready supply of wheat MJ that is probably a good idea.
