100% Organic Artisan Bread Flour - 25 lbs - Old World

The CENTRAL MILLING 100% Organic Artisan Bread Flour is a fantastic product that has become a staple in my baking routine. This 25 lbs bag of old-world heritage flour is truly remarkable, and I use it exclusively for my organic starter and sourdough breads. The quality of this flour is evident from the moment you open the bag. It has a fine, consistent texture and a pleasant aroma that speaks to its organic origins. My sourdough starter thrives on this flour, becoming more active and vibrant with each feeding. The resulting bread has a beautiful rise, a perfect crust, and a rich, complex flavor that is simply unmatched. One of the things I appreciate most about this flour is its versatility. It performs wonderfully in a variety of recipes, whether I'm making a simple loaf or experimenting with more complex sourdough creations. The heritage grains used in this flour bring a depth of flavor and nutritional value that sets it apart from other flours. Overall, I highly recommend CENTRAL MILLING 100% Organic Artisan Bread Flour for anyone serious about baking high-quality, organic bread. It’s a worthwhile investment that delivers exceptional results every time. Five stars!

I bake sourdough bread primarily and rye bread. When making a "light" rye I like to use a mix of bread flour and rye. I have used King Arthur brand for years and it is a good product. But I found this and wanted to give it a try. I liked it so much I bought a second bag! (I bake bread weekly.) With the $10 off coupon that was great on this second bag I got. The flour itself produces a good quality, great tasting loaf of bread. The flour is fresh and the bags I received have a substantial shelf life into 2022. Stored properly it will keep well. You can bag it up and store in the freezer or if you have a cool, dark storage area, that works well too. The first bag I got the bag was within another huge plastic bag which was great. The second bag was not packaged that way, but no rips, tears or punctures in the bag. It's very thick paper, multiple layers, very sturdy. I highly recommend this product.

Best flour for sourdough!! Love it!!

When I opened the bag, my first impression was the fragrance. Then the color. Both are uniquely rich and very different from traditional 'store bought' flours. I made two sourdough loaves. This flour developed gluten from the second stretch and fold; the store bought flours take longer to develop their gluten matrix. Oven spring almost push the lid off the Dutch oven- seriously. I've used KA, GM, my own combinations of wheat, spelt and store bought 'bread' whites and nothing can compare to this flour. If you read this and don't try a bag, you're definitely missing an experience. At $2/# it a bit 'pricey' by comparison and if buying it in 50# or 100# quantities reduced the price, it would be my go to flour. I may try cutting it with KA at a 50/50 ratio. If you make sourdough, you know that every loaf is an experiment, for sure. But in no uncertain terms, this flour is different and in a very positive way. Not sure 'Wow' is an appropriate description for flour, but for this one...WOW!

This product came as expected. I have been trying all sort of flours for home made bread. I also have been using this flour for other baking needs such as cookies. This flour make soft pillowy smooth cookies and bread. I am going to try for Artisan Crust next time. Clean taste and pic was with quick acting yeast. No starter so tasted clean. I will buy again.
