What is the best flour to use for breadmaking machines?

Flour & Grain : Grain Chain Club
The best flour to use for breadmaking machines is bread flour, although all purpose flour can be used. Bread flour milled specifically for bread, is made only from hard wheat. Bread flour has a higher gluten content and will absorb more liquid. Bread made with bread flour will rise significantly higher and have better texture then bread made with all-purpose flour.

What is the best flour for bread baking?

Real Baking with Rose Levy Beranbaum: FAQs Archives
All purpose flour is fine as long as it is unbleached as bleaching weakens the protein which is needed to give a good texture or crumb to the bread. Bread flour has higher protein and will make a chewier bread. Regional flours may be lower in protein than ones available nationally such as Gold Medal, or Pillsbury.

Do you use organic flour in any of your breads?

FAQ
Yes. All of our starters are made with organic flour. Our multigrain bread is made exclusively with organic flour. Organic flours tend to react very well in the starter phase. We strive to balance different kinds of flours on order to achieve a good flavor and texture balance. Traditionally, pugliese (poul yay zay) loaves have a rustic, flat shape which gives them their second name "ciabatta" (che bah ah) which means slipper in Italian.

How can I use Self-Rising Flour in recipes recommending Plain Flour?

White Lily® - Frequently Asked Questions
This is more difficult since the baking powder is already added in self-rising flour. If a recipe calls for plain and you have self-rising, check the amounts of leavening in the recipe. If the recipe has less than 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt, then it is not possible to substitute self-rising flour in the recipe.

nbsp1.) Can I use plain flour in the substrate instead of "Organically Produced" flour?

Shroom Wizard "Mushroom Travel Agent" - Frequently...
nbspAnswer) Definitely not. Regular flour is grown in fields using chemical pesticides and herbicides. These unorganic substances eventually work their way into the grain and end up in the flour itself which would inhibit the growth of the mycelium. Also regular flour is usually bleached (for whitening) and has preservatives added that inhibit the growth of fungus (for longer shelf life).

nbsp 3.) Is there any other flour I can use in place of the "Organic Brown Rice" flour?

Shroom Wizard "Mushroom Travel Agent" - Frequently...
nbsp Answer) Yes, you can use about any flour that is labeled "Organically Produced" on the package. All Natural or No Additives will not work. Believe me, if the flour is really organically produced it will state so on the package. I have had excellent success using rye and soy grain flour (organically produced) also.

Is the flour you use all purpose or self rising?

Coconut & Lime: Frequently Asked Questions
All recipes call for all purpose flour (I generally used unbleached) unless they specify something different. An easy way to tell if the flour is supposed to be all purpose or self rising is to check and see if the recipe calls for any other sort of leavening agent. If it calls for baking soda or baking powder, you need to use all purpose. Self rising flour is basically regular flour that has baking soda and salt added to it.

Can you use more rye flour in a rye bread that suggested?

Real Baking with Rose Levy Beranbaum: FAQs Archives
My preference is for a light rye flavor and texture so I use just under 18% rye. If you want higher than 20% rye you need to make a sourdough rye because the acidity of the sourdough is necessary to keep the crumb from getting sticky (due to the pentosans in the rye flour). To make a bread with about 42% rye, convert the sourdough starter to a sourdough rye starter by feeding it medium rye flour instead of bread flour. You will need a few extra drops of water to achieve a smooth consistency.

Can I use home ground or home milled flour?

Zojirushi
After some testing it was determined that it is possible to use this type of flour. However, the flour has to be measured by weight and not by volume. This is because the texture of home ground flour may differ from store bought. Some home ground flour may be ground too fine or too coarse. Please calculate the weight required in recipes in the Home Bakery manual by following this formula for flour: 4 oz = 1 cup of flour.
