Whole Wheat Flour - Organic
Out of stock
5 lb of organic whole wheat milled by Jeff at Whole Grain Milling in Welcome MN. This organic whole wheat is sourced regionally and milled locally. We use it a number of our breads like Granny Gear and Classic Cruiser as well as a number of our cookies to give 'em a little something special. It's a wonderfully predictable flour to work with.
More about the flour we use here at Brake Bread
Whole Wheat Flour = 100% extraction, meaning 100% of the grain that went into the mill comes out as flour.
High Extraction Wheat Flour = 85% extraction, meaning 85% of the grain that went into the mill comes out as flour. The 15% that does not, is mostly bran and some germ. High extraction flour is also called, bolted, sifted, or 85% extraction.
White Flour = 75% extraction, meaning 75% of the grain that went into the mill comes out as flour. The 25% that is removed is the germ and bran, leaving the lighter colored starch.
Each level of milling has different attributes. Whole Wheat flour is going to be the most flavorful and nutritious, White Flour is going to be a lighter simpler flavor. It gets more nuanced when you look at the style of mill being used and the grain varietals as well. If you love baking, our recommendation is to try each of the flours and notice how they differ and choose accordingly. At Brake Bread we lean towards using more whole grains in our breads and more white flour in our pastries.
