Every rye flour I have purchased, even other brands has a coarser texture than regular AP or Bread flour. But it does make wonderful bread!

There is an organic version of the perfect flour blend. The 5lb bag of it can be found in Costco. However, it has a very earthy, dirt-like taste that is hard to overcome unless heavily flavored. I wouldn't recommend the organic version for that reason. The original version tastes much more like normal flour.

If you only want to use the rye flour, the bread will be very small, squished and heavy. This is what I do using my bread machine: I use 1.5 cups of rye flour, 1.5 wheat flour (of the same Organic Milling Company) and 1 cup all-purpose generic grocery store flour (I like Trader Joe's all purpose unbleached flour, but it doesn't have to be TJ'S). The all purpose flour is not as healthy, but it holds the bread together. If you skip it and use just 50 50 mix of rye and wheat flour, the bread may easily crumble. I also add 2 tsps of salt, 1 tsp of sugar, 1 Tbsp of oil and 2.75 tsps of Red Dry Yeast. The bread rises nicely and it's much puffier than bread made only from rye flour.

If anyone finds out whether the spelt flour is whole or white, please let me know too!

1/4 cup has 5 grams of protein, and mine is VERY fresh, not slightly "off" like store bought flour. Happy baking!

Coarse. And I think a little too expensive. I am now using "semolina flour" which is more the texture of cake flour. It's easier to handle and really cannot taste a difference. If you live in NYC, I buy it at International Foods on Ninth Avenue and 40th St. in Manhattan.

don't really understand what you mean by "raw". It's a very fine powder that reminds me of cornstarch. I've read that it's totally different than potato "flour" tho......

I'm not sure what process oat flour goes through, but this is simply ground(very finely ground) oat meal. It's texture resembles powdered sugar.

Try it from your store first if you have doubts. My experience is that it has a whole grain texture. I like it.

I've used it just like regular flour. I made pizzelle cookies for Christmas and they turned out fine, cookies too. I also made pancakes with it.

I like the taste and texture better than red whole wheat flour. It will make a good bread alone, but I prefer to mix it about half and half with a white bread or all purpose flour to get a lighter texture. I use a honey-wheat recipe and substitute the seven grain for whole wheat.

Yes, it's a white flour. It's meant for baking bread. I was quite happy with it.

It's definitely not as white as all purpose flour, is I suspect it is NOT bleached.

Hi, I'm not sure which organic wheat flour you are comparing this one to, but what I "can" tell you about this flour is that it is not only organic, but is also organically milled (using stone grinding methods )as well. Hope this helps. If you have any other questions I'd be glad to try to answer them.

Yes it's definitely ground. I haven't open a package yet but it feels like a very fine flour.

I don't think it would be a good flour replacement. I use it in smoothies or desserts. It's not a grain.

I can't account for the inaccurate picture. When I ordered the Wellbee's almond flour I received Wellbee's almond flour. It's very good and finer than Bob's Red Mill by far. Very good for baking!
