Sprouted Wheat Berry Flour, Grain Mills, and Bread

I bought a grain mill.

Wow....I'm just gonna watch this venture unfold. Seems y'all need something to do that I don't. but love the energy.

I'm thinking those sprouts need to dry some before grinding....dump on a towel?

I put a batch of sprouted wheat berries on my pizza crisper pan overnight and it wasn't enough. I use my dehydrator. I will try a towel. I'm not keen on using a lot of electricity for processing grain.

I haven't learned any new SS skills in a long time. I's time for some challenges!

I soaked coarse flour in the amount of water for a bread recipe. I left it in the fridge overnight. DS14 washed dishes and lost the bread machine paddle. I don't have time to make it by hand today.

The texture is similar to Ezekiel 4:9 bread and the flavor is good. Its edible but not fantastic.

it is a start. but now you get why people made thin breads and crackers.

The Kitchenaid heats up? I think I'd skip that one.

Maybe you could make flat bread? Roll it out thin like a tortilla?

Bread machine paddle has been found! 🙌 Can't wait to try it tomorrow. Same recipe, difference being letting the flour and liquid soak and rest.

Winter White is lighter than the Red. DH sifts his flour when he uses the Red; just enough to remove the larger pieces of bran, without removing ALL of it, so it makes a lighter loaf but still fiber-rich. We use the sifted bran to soak up grease from pans so we don't run it down the drain. The chickens love the grease-soaked bran.
