Found the easiest best milled wheat recipe for bread machine bread if anyone wants to try. . 2 cups hard red wheat, 2 cups hard White wheat, 2tsp salt, 2 cups water, 1/2 tablespoon yeast, 1/3 cup honey. Follow your Bread machine for order of ingredients. Soooo good and easy.

I also knew the Beckers in the 90s. Sour dough gets rid of the coating problem. The wheat kernel is covered in enzyme inhibitors and phytic acid. So the wheat either needs to be sprouted or soured to make it digestible. I do regret the years I spent grinding wheat and baking without souring for sour dough. Today my sour dough bread is the most wonderul, easy, and rewarding bread I have ever eaten. NO more bloating, etc.

@@GrainsandGrit Figuring out how to make a sourdough starter and sourdough bread last year was kinda fun. Prior to that I never baked a thing and I got a little lucky, they were good. I stopped because it was a slow process and the other breads weren’t as good, (think I need a new oven). In the meantime I bought a bread machine and want to start again with milled wheat. Just need to figure out where to buy wheat berries. Someone suggested LDS do you know anything about that/them? Or where to buy it?

@northwoodsmama4973 2 года назад

Making freshly milled flour for bread is going to give you a coarser loaf, unless it sits. Ive used it when I make bread for a couple years. I also proof my sourdough with sugar in a bowl separate from the starter culture jar, to make a more traditional loaf texture and shape. I take two tbsps or so of starter, equal amount of sugar, stir in a bowl, add a quarter cup of water, cover it, and wait. It usually begins foaming right away and I begin to add my fresh milled flour a few tbsps at a time. Then, I stir in my oil and salt, and continue adding flour until the texture is right, and I again cover it and wait. Usually, I sit the bowl next my wood stove or the cooking stove to help it get going. A few tips, a longer rising time isn't always better. Watch your dough til it's about twice it's original volume. Then work it up and into a prepared loaf pan for it's final rise. I'd cover it for the first half and then butter it for the second.

I am so fortunate that your channel showed up in my feed. I've been looking into wheat berries for about a week, and you are correct...the whole process can be intimidating...your video helped with that. Besides the wheat berries information, I was first drawn to your bookshelf behind you. A person's bookshelf provides great insight into who they are. Your collection of Bibles is impressive. I have a lot of Bibles as well and am always on the lookout for new/old versions I don't have. My wife recently asked me if I thought I had enough Bibles...I responded with don't you think you have enough shoes? The subject hasn't come up since. Anyway, I also tuned into your classical homeschool comments and am impressed. My son and his wife also use that method to homeschool. Also like you, my daughter-in-law couldn't even make toast when she entered the family, but I taught all my kids how to cook, do laundry, iron their clothes, clean, budget, grocery shop...life skills that a lot of people disregard. Sorry, I digress, your video is timely, helpful and reassuring. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge and experience. Thank you from a new subscriber.

@GrainsandGrit 2 года назад

Haha, you would like the bookshelves - they're my husbands! I can't resist shooting some vids at his desk, because they make such a great background, lol. Yes, life skills aren't really emphasized anymore - but hopefully we can change that a little at a time.

Thank you so much for ALL the great information you give. I have been buying wheat berries for about a year now and one thing I notice is that there are some small blackish round pieces (smaller than the wheat berry and hard...not bugs) I get my berries from Azure Standard. I generally have just been grinding it up with my flour assuming it was just part of the plant, but from time to time I crunch down on something pretty hard and i am wondering if these are tiny pebbles I am grinding. I have tried to find an answer online but haven't found anything. I figured if anyone one would know, it would be you! Thank you and God bless!

If so, how do you avoid any residual moisture getting in the bucket from a freshly thawed grain ? New to all of this and don’t want to mess it up. Thanks in advance :)

@GrainsandGrit 3 года назад

Glad these videos are helping you! I do not recommend freezing wheat. In my experience, it is not necessary. I DO recommend freezing rice and corn (this includes grits). I have buckets of wheat berries out in my shed that will stay out there for months in Florida heat and humidity and I've never had wheat berries go bad. I HAVE had little mites hatch and be in my corn and rice, so I ALWAYS freeze those for about 24 hours for long term storage! When I freeze them, I then just take them out and dump them in a bucket with a good lid. I've never had issues with moisture with those grains.

Can I add #6? When trying out a new recipe don't expect anything other than what it is, the first time out. If it doesn't go well, then don't toss it in the trash and say forget it and never try it again. Even your climate plays a part in bread baking. Maybe number #7? Not all mistakes turn out bad! If you have a happy accident and it turns out well, don't "say" I need to remember to write that down..YOU WON'T remember. Go write it down as soon as you realize that worked well! I have been baking bread for many many years and sometimes life happens and your dough over-proofed, Or you forgot that your oven runs 25 degrees cooler and you need to bump it up a notch. Or, this recipe cooks faster than called for, or longer than called for in my oven. Don't ever worry about making mistakes with a recipe- this is how news ones are born. And sometimes old favorites just didn't taste good- today.

I too mill my own grains and have Sue's book. I noticed that the bread loaves I make, don't always rise. I've had some great successes and some big flops. The taste is always there, even when the loaves don't rise, but it's a bummer when they don't rise. I can't figure out why sometimes the same recipe works and other times, it doesn't. I don't have a stand mixer so I knead my bread by hand. I understand that you need to knead by hand for a minimum of 15-20 minutes whereas with a stand mixer you would knead for 5 minutes. All I know is I literally just made Sue Becker's rye bread recipe, not my first time making it either, and it looks like a brick. Ugh! Any reason why the bread doesn't rise. It rises during proofing but seems to collapse in the oven or just get a flat top.

I just got a grain mill this past summer and recently started milling my flour. I have a kitchen aid mixer, but it just doesn’t seem to be strong enough. I noticed you use a Bosch. Is that something you recommend or is there another mixer that you recommend?? Thank you, Jerilyn

@GrainsandGrit 8 месяцев назад

Yeah, if you are serious about milling, Bosch is the one to get: bit.ly/3sG1i7E

Thank you for your advice. My reason for wanting to mill my own flour is that I found my first bugs in a 2.5 lb of packaged flour, yikes! I don’t want to come across that again so I’ve seen many videos of preppers storing the wheat for milling so now I’ll do the same! I’m only interested in getting the wheat to make all purpose flour but I saw that you have many videos so I’ll research that information. As a mexican cook I make flour and corn tortillas primarily but have now expanded to learn how to make bread, pizza, hamburger and hot dog buns. Not looking for any fancy artisan bread just the basics.

I’m feeling pretty discouraged. I subbed freshly milled white hard wheat I bought for Robin Hood best for bread flour that I regularly use in my bread machine and the results were a complete bust. It only rose about 50% as much as it usually does and the dough felt grainy to the touch even though I milled it to the finest setting. Can you tell me what I did wrong? I bought a 50lb bag of wheat berries.

👵Thankyou and God bless for the encouragement. I got discouraged trying to make 100% whole wheat bread from scratch w/my freshly ground wheat. They turned out like bricks. I wondered for years what I was doing wrong and the Lord sent me a RU-vid video by Dr. Walter Veith that was sooo simple. I recommend this to all baby bread makers like myself. . .

@emmalouie1663 2 года назад

Cool video but it sort of stresses me out watching this when it gets to the starvation part. Definitely some real hardship is going to hit. I'm not a home-owner so being a prepper is not a possibility for me. Oh well. Oh the other aspect I think it's great that people still believe in trying to make real things themselves and do it well. It's also great that you are involved in home-schooling, I've been in the university system lately and it was shocking since the instructors are obsessed with doing identity politics on students instead of merely teaching the subjects the students are paying to learn. It's going to be very important that young people grow up with a strong sense of self and a healthy skepticism of those in influential/authority positions.

Yes public education in all aspects is now about indoctrination not actual education. Do know you don't have to own your home to be prepared! it can be as simple as just having extra groceries on hand to last at least a month 😃

@tomh7429 2 года назад

@@GrainsandGrit I agree and I’d also like to add getting started can be expensive for the average family so perhaps you can find a trusted friend that is a home owner and COOP with them, perhaps you by the mixer and they buy the grinder and you both invest in different grains. I’m currently trying to get some of my close neighbors involved and have offered the use of my grinder and mixer until they can budget for their own. In reference to the indoctrination, if you have the time we need good people like you on our school boards.

@greentree_ 6 месяцев назад

I made my first loaf of freshly milled flour just yesterday! It was easy, I just opened a #10 can of wheatberries and threw some in my blender, then I put all ingredients in my bread machine, following the recipe in the machine recipe book. I used a kitchen scale to be precise. My bread turned out so delicious and soft and fresh. I have a Vitamix, but I do not have the dry blade container so I blended the wheat berries in the wet blade container, it works, but I heard it’s not good for the blender, so when I can afford, I will buy the dry blade container. With all this help it was very easy to make healthy bread.

Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge...I believe it is absolutely necessary to regularly eat what you plan to eat during difficult times... Not only is it a healthy lifestyle but it also will not require as much adjustment to your life WHEN things spin out of control...I think most people will agree that It's not a matter of IF we will need to adjust our lives, rather a matter of WHEN and just how difficult life is likely to become.

@Thisisit120 3 года назад

What I would like to know because I’m new at grinding my own wheat thing. Is how you get the different flours that recipes calls for what do you add what particular grain do you use, how do you get all purpose flour, how do you get pastry flour, how do you get self rising flour, and bread flour,and on and on. This is a thing that is tripping me up right now on my grin grinding journey. Love your videos. ❤️

@GrainsandGrit 3 года назад

First ask “what is this recipe for?” If it’s a baked good like cookies, cakes, etc I’m automatically going to eliminate my hard white and red flours . Those are best used for loaf breads. So if you have a recipe that calls for bread flour, use a hard red or hard white. For baked goods soft white wheat is usually what you want. Pastry flour: Sifted soft white thats milled fine. All purpose: depends on whether it’s for a yeast bread or a baked good Bread flour: hard red or hard white wheat. Once you get used to substituting those wheats, then you can branch out and experiment with ancient grains and others.

In my recipe, I did 50-50 wheat, berries, ground them up and put a tablespoon of gluten in it along with. I think it’s called a dried molasses or could be the dried can sugar. I don’t know what you call it, but my bread when I put it in a bread machine, it wasn’t wet enough so I put a tablespoon of warm water in it at a time until it got to the point of kind of a dry sticky. Then add rose up from 330 to 4:43. Almost to the top but by 457 it was over the top by 514 time it started mixing up and setting the timer for the second rise. Will the gluten have much of a negative nutrient in my bread

@GrainsandGrit 5 месяцев назад

There is nothing wrong with a natural amount of gluten in your bread. It helps your bread to rise, and God gave it to us.
