Constance, thank you for making a video easy enough for a 66 year old man to follow, my late wife was the head cook and baker in our house while I was the cleanup crew, this worked great for 47 years and now I’ve been thrown to the lions as I have no cooking or baking skills, I knew from day one that I needed real food to nourish my mind and body so I began to read and watch videos and this is where I learned the health benefits of wheat berries which I have made soups and salads out of but was afraid to try baking with it up until I watched your video and trust me I watched several before stumbling upon yours, you gave me the confidence to order a wondermill and a Bosch mixer and now I am awaiting a few more supplies to show up so I can bake my first loaf of bread ever. Every best Tom

My adult daughter loved it and said she was going to hide it from her family which I replied no worries this recipe is so easy I can make it anytime you want. Thank you for being generous through sharing your recipes. Every best Tom

I gave my WonderMill mixer to a family that has 9 children. I always dreamed of having a Bosch mixer but I chose the WonderMill instead. I realized after trying to mix my bread recipe that it was too big so I gave it to someone who would be able to take advantage of a big machine.

I just wanted to let you know that I am very much aware of BREAD BECKERS. I am fortunate to live about 20 minutes away from Woodstock. I was introduced to them about 25 years ago. My how time flies. In the beginning I had a friend grind my wheat. Since then I have gathered more appliances. My family is grown so consumption has been reduced. I still get together with like minded friends monthly to continue this tradition. I am very blessed to have become part of this growing group. Thank you for all your skills and advice moving forward. Blessings, Mardene

I was just thinking yesterday how I really wish they had a drop here in NWA. Thankfully we have Azure Standard, so I can get bulk organics through them. It was just nice being able to get them in the buckets :)

I love your presentation! Today is the day I unbox my NutriMill and make some *real* bread. Another option for wheat berries is Azure Standard. They have drops all over the country, about once a month. Thanks for the instruction, the confidence boost, and the recipe! And a huge thank you for your service to our nation. My hub did about 30 years. It is NOT an easy life. We settled in TN after all those PCS moves :)

Guess what? I'll be at Beckers bread 🍞 tomorrow. I ordered my wonder mill the other day. I'll be getting my wheat tomorrow

Your channel came up when I was looking for information on wheat berries...and I'm glad it did. Great presentation...thank you from a new subscriber.

You're baking your bread at too low of a temperature, that's why they're not browning up as nice if you do it at 375 for 30 minutes your loaves will rise a lot better and they'll be browned up darker and nicer. and since you're kneeding the dough in the machine you don't need to do two rises as soon as you take the dough out form it into loaves and put it in your bread pans and then turn your oven to 170F turn it off put the loaves in for half an hour they'll rise beautifully leave them in the oven and set your oven to 375, as soon as it hits 375 put the timer on for 30 minutes and you'll have beautiful high loaves.

So far I’ve not been successful baking with freshly milled wheat. Thanks for your video - can’t wait to try your recipe?

Loved your video. Haven’t bought a mill yet, been using a little Braun coffee grinder, slow but it works. My Kitchen Aid did well for many years (I got good at replacing gears), but now that I’ve graduated to grinding and using whole wheat for my dough making, the Ankarsrum mixer that my wife and daughter bought for me last Christmas far exceeds the Kitchen Aid for ability to mix large amounts of dough. It’s a learning process though. Helpful video.

Hi- I love that mixer!! I’ve been using my KitchenAid with great results (so far, knock wood), but this mixer! Takes it to the next level. I did a dumb thing last sat. Here, in CA. We are into the triple digits heat-wise. I’ve been turning on the AC in the afternoon for a bit. I made two loaves of sourdough sandwich bread-first time ever-no rise! What? Lol. If I only had a brain! The AC was keeping it too cool. From now on, in the oven they go to rise. I took them out, covered to the garage and was able to salvage them. 🤦🏻‍♀️ My son sent me 25 lbs of organic stone ground when all the COVID business started. I’ve been using the mill attachment for my Vita-Mix and so far, so good. Again, your mill is very tempting tho! I saved this video so I can get to your recipe here. I want to give it a try.

I usually use hard white wheat. I don't really measure the wheat berries, I just measure the flour that comes out :)

Can you use instant yeast or does it have to be the regular yeast? I made my first loaf a couple of weeks ago and wasn’t happy with the result. I used instant yeast and mixed it in the bread maker. That probably wasn’t the best choice.

I use instant yeast quite frequently.

Do I have to do anything to the wheat before grinding? Just ordered in my first bags of wheat

Nope, just mill and use :)

Do you freeze the other loaves when you make that many at one time?

Sometimes I do, it just depends on if I think we will go through them all or not.

Pleasant Hill has a flat $10 shipping fee no matter how big the order.

Where did you buy the grinder? Thanks !

It is the "Family Grain Mill" which I got here: pleasanthillgrain.com/family-grain-mill-flour-grinder-wheat-grinder-combos

Personally I prefer to print the recipes due to internet access, what a great way to entertain the grandchildren when your internet is down but if you leave all your recipes online how will you access them?

I have a website and provide printable versions of my recipes. I personally print them out and put them in binders :)
