I have a Bosch mixer. I bought it in 1995 when I bought my K-tec kitchen mill. They are both still going strong. I have been grinding my own wheat since1973. I have a Corona handmill that I used. Talk about a workout! But it worked until I got the K-tec. I now also have a Country Living hand mill. Wow! What a dream of a handmill! I guess I am pretty easily pleased because I never have noticed any difference in fresh milled flour. The Corona is pretty rough and we had Arrowhead mills ship us organic hard red wheat. I didn't have really fine flour. But the bread always came out very nicely. When I got the K-tec and Bosch I was absolutely amazed. And to this day every time I use them I send a little prayer of gratitude heavenward. I make 6 loaves of 100% WW bread every 2 weeks, double bag them and freeze. In 1995 I still had 4 children at home so I was making 6 loaves weekly. I use the Bosch for cookies and marshmallows. I have 9 grandchildren living right down the hill so I make a lot of cookies. My opinion, get a Bosch. You won't be sorry.

You’re not getting probiotics from sourdough bread. They don’t survive baking temperatures or digestion. You’re getting prebiotics and postbiotics.

I have both Celtic sea salt and Redmond. For the Redmond I have both the kosher grind and the fine ground.

I keep kosher in my salt grinder and grind it myself sometimes. the Celtic salt comes in larger grind than even the kosher and it has never ever not totally dissolved or left any grit and I've been using that for 15 years. My advice with the courser ground Redmond would be to just grind it fine before using

Also, I would recommend a bench scraper to use as well. Let me know how it turns out if you give it a try. Happy Baking!

Yes, you could use half milk, half water. Let me know how it turns out! Happy Baking!

I really want to try this recipe. How do you make the starter to begin with? I've searched for videos and never seem to find info on that.

I plan to make a video in the future on this if there is enough interest. But, I just start out with weighing fresh milled flour and putting that same weight of water in a loosely covered jar. Then, let it sit room temp for 2-3 days. Then, start taking half out and throwing it away, and feeding with the same weight of new fresh milled flour and water as what you have left over in your jar. Do this everyday. Once it starts doubling consistently daily it is ready to use, and you can start using the discard in recipes. I hope that helps!

One more question Kara I am gonna be using the Focaccia bread recipe to make sandwich loaves glass bread pans..do I need to double the recipe to make 2 or will there be enough dough in just one recipe to make 2 sandwich loaves?

@GrainsInSmallPlaces

It should give you one loaf if it's a larger 5x9 bread pan. OR you can double the recipe for two 5x9 bread pans. (If they are the smaller 4x8 pans, then yes one recipe will get 2 small loaves.) Also, with glass pans, you generally need to bake 5-10 minutes longer (Just check the internal temperature of the center of each loaf before pulling them from the oven. (Yeast loaf at least over 190*F, Sourdough loaf at least over 205*F.)

You could knead the dough in it, but I am not sure if the results would be good with the rise times. You kind of need to check o the dough to see when it is ready to shape and bake. There may be a place to program those settings, I am not sure I don't have one. Let me know if you do give it a try how it goes! Happy Baking!

Lol. Yes. I might try it. Someone gave me a sourdough starter and I'm not good at making regular bread yet, let alone a sourdough bread (I have to use the Zohorushi). But I think I can use the sourdough "discard" on other baked goods and just maintain it until I get the confidence to try to make the sourdough bread. Little too scary for me just yet.

Baking times will vary for different ovens, Bake loaves for 30-35 minutes until the internal temperature of the center of the loaves are 205-210*F. If they are below this temp, the loaves may be gummy. Here is the recipe link grainsinsmallplaces.net/sourdough-sandwich-bread/#recipe

I’ve got a question 🙂 I’ve been baking sourdough for over a decade & am new to all FMF loaves & to my harvest mill. In trying to grind it as pine as possible I cranked it down till I just heard it before adding the berries the some more after adding them & the flour stopped coming out. I had poured all the berries in & thought maybe that was the issue so turned it off & scooped most of it out & loosened the grinder again. It worked again fine after that but I don’t think the flour is very fine. Any tips? Thank you! 💕

@GrainsInSmallPlaces

6 ай бұрын

You did it right to turn it on, make it until the stones barely touch, then pour in the grains. Then lightly tighten it again, but not so tight that it stops. Just a very fine turn. OR your mill may need cleaned (Just run 2 cups of dry rice through it). If you still have a problem, I would recommend you contact Nutrimill, it shouldn't be stopping unless it got tightened too tight. I hope that helps!

In the beginning of the video, that was us feeding our starter the night before to make sure it was good and strong. Then we used the discard the next day in this recipe as the leavener for the sandwich bread. Then, fed it again so it would be ready for tomorrow's baking adventures! I hope this helps!

@grainsinsmallplaces I meant at the end about 25 minutes in to the video. You fed it and it was 75 grams. Then you said when it doubled you were going to feed it again. If that's what you meant, I'm curious why you would feed it twice instead of initially feeding it more than the 30 grams each of flour & water and it would be ready for your baking the next morning.

@GrainsInSmallPlaces

7 ай бұрын

Oh, I meant I would probably feed it again before my next bake with it. So, later that evening before bed. So, I would have enough the next day of a good strong starter. Just my preference. I find that fresh milled flour sourdough starter often needs fed 2 times a day or more if left on the counter. And, I was in Florida while filming this, so it was pretty warm out as well.

@judystennett6020

7 ай бұрын

@grainsinsmallplaces OK. I didn't realize you keep yours on the counter. I keep a Tbsp in the fridge and if I need a cup for baking I feed it enough to make a little over a cup. Thank you. My daughter lives in NW Arkansas and she does the same as me. However, baking is much different there because of their lower altitude. Which is why I'm curious about the way you do things in different areas.

This baker has no mixer, she hand mixes and kneads all her breads, any suggestions with this recipe? Typically I wet my hands when kneading until the dough is strong or window panes.

@GrainsInSmallPlaces

7 ай бұрын

Kneading by hand with fresh milled flour is truly a labor of love! I would recommend you take step 6, and make sure to autolyse for the full hour. This will help the fresh milled flour to start absorbing the liquids. It is a very wet and sticky dough, so I recommend using some olive oil on your work surface, and hands for kneading. Using a bench scraper may also help. It will be pretty difficult to work with in the beginning, but as it comes together and forms the gluten it will be a bit easier. Let me know how it turns out! Happy Baking!

I have made this twice, it is super yummy, but I can’t get a good rise. How long is the max for letting it rise? My starter is only a couple months old, but it is doubling in size. Maybe I’m not letting it rise long enough?

@GrainsInSmallPlaces

2 ай бұрын

There are many factors that can affect this, but typically between 3-6 hours. If it's colder, it will take longer, if it is warmer it will be faster. A little trick you can do, is pull a piece of dough off just before you cover to rise, and place it in a very small glass jar, and mark the jar. You can watch the small piece of dough, and when it is almost doubled in size, you can shape the dough. Then punch down the little piece of dough, and watch it rise again. The second rise is generally half the amount of time as the first rise took. Once it looks nice and puffy and domed, it is ready to bake. My bread pans are small 4x8 pans, so if you have a 4.5x8.5 pan or a 5x9 bread pan, then I recommend doubling the recipe for the 5x9 (or just make one loaf with the recipe), and 1.5x the recipe for the 4.5x8.5 size. Otherwise, the loaves will be small, and the rise might not even be an issue. Also, make sure you feed your sourdough starter heavy the night before baking, so it is good and strong. (at least a 1:2:2 ratio) Let me know how it goes! Happy Baking!
