Are all wheats the same? What's the difference? | Bake With Me | Product Review

[@jennygumbert6589]

I ❤ 4 Generations! They are the nicest people to do business with. Star Dust is my favorite for cinnamon raisin bread. Sky Dance makes the best flour tortillas ever for flavor and workability…I have used Sonoran for years but family has voted for Sky Dance. And Butler’s Gold…wonderful billowy hamburger buns. And when I have a smattering of a variety of ground wheat leftovers throw them all together and make delicious moist bread. I don’t believe you can go wrong with any of their offerings.

[@GrainsandGrit]

I know, right?? Each of their grains has its own characteristic personality and applications. It's a treasure trove of options! Thanks for the comment.

[@margolucas3793]

If I order the wheat berries in a bucket, how does it come? Is it packed only in the bucket, or is it in a Mylar bag in the bucket? What is the shelf life if it is left unopened? Thank you!

[@Simplyinspried]

I’m going to try your recipe today. I’m new to grains. They look so good. Thanks for explaining and talking all about the grains. Learning a lot from your videos.

[@GrainsandGrit]

Woo hoo!!! You can do it!!! Glad this was helpful 😀

[@laredawilder2806]

I so enjoyed watching you bake and learning new things about wheat

[@c.anderson3094]

I just placed an order to try 4Generations hard white wheat berries. I am so excited to check them out. Thank you so much for the coupon!!

[@GrainsandGrit]

YAY!! You're going to LOVE them.

[@SeasidePrincess]

Love your content! I mix my grains for their characteristics based on what I need. So if I’m making loaf bread I used more hard red in the mix than I do if I’m making cinnamon rolls or pizza. 😄 I came to this by tasting the grains raw and also understanding the gluten content (how high I can expect it to rise vs how high I want it to rise).

[@AlsanPine]

oh, excellent vid. i don't get to experiment much as i grow much of my own grains but this was amazing! lots of work! you are amazing, truly 🙂

[@GrainsandGrit]

That's so cool you grow your own! Way to go to the next level :-)

[@lindapearson2376]

Your videos are always so informative! Thank you for sharing. I have been making bread for 30 years. I still learn so much from you!

[@GrainsandGrit]

Woo hoo! Proof you can always be learning new things! 😀

[@margolucas3793]

Excellent video with great information! Thank you so much.

[@lindarpg1777]

Thank you for all your hard work putting this video together. I am new to milling wheat berries and baking, so this was very informative. What is the best way to store your baked goods to keep them fresh??

[@GrainsandGrit]

[@maureenparran8918]

Thank you for all your effort in putting out a fascinating video.

[@GrainsandGrit]

Glad you enjoyed it :-)

[@aprilstutzman9231]

I was happy to see that you posted this today. You always have great content! 😊

[@GrainsandGrit]

Aw thank you!!! ❤️

[@SusanDaschner]

Love this. I have only used a red hard turkey wheat. Butler's Gold was an interesting story about how it got it's name & how it is planted in December. Thanks.

[@GrainsandGrit]

You’re welcome!! Glad you learned some things too 😀

[@auswindall]

Thank you for this !! I’m going to order !! We are 100% wheat berries one year now ! It all started from you !! Blessings

[@GrainsandGrit]

Woo hoo!!!! That is awesome news! Keep it up!

[@margaret-lg6ul]

Interesting experiment. Like you said nobody in the family will likely know the difference, but it’s fun to geek out on wheat berries and all the different grains sometimes! Thanks for a great video. I enjoyed it sitting on my chair crocheting this evening.

[@GrainsandGrit]

So glad you liked it! Yeah I made rolls with Yecora the other night and they were loved by all. But my husband did say if I hadn't said anything about what type of wheat, he never would have known lol So long as the rolls are fresh, hot out of the oven, they love them!

[@auswindall]

Ordering today 🎉 excited

[@MDay-hh1bm]

Great information. Thank you so much! BLESSINGS TO YOU

[@GrainsandGrit]

You are so welcome

[@camelliamay2920]

i've ordered from and baked with 4 Generations wheat. I do get mixed up with their names of their wheat varieties. I think I have hard white now. I have to call it hard white, hard red, soft white, etc. due to the confusion.

[@diggerobones]

I had that issue with Montana Prarie Gold. I now love it, but the issue was backing off on the hydration.

[@sarahharris-prewett8035]

Excellent information. Thank you ma'am!

[@GrainsandGrit]

You are welcome!!

[@noracabezas4559]

Thank you Felicia. I live in S FL. What about shipping costs. I would rather purchase larger quantities because usually more cost effective in long run.

[@MorganGibson-TN]

Do you know if the gamma lid fit the buckets from 4 Generations. Loved this video I have used wheat Montana for years. Since moving across country I have lost my connection for buying it. I excited to order some and try it.

[@GrainsandGrit]

Yep 😀

[@bethstamper7621]

What bread pans do you use?

[@GrainsandGrit]

I LOVE USA Pans: bit.ly/3zgfxUc

[@margolucas3793]

If I order the 35 pound bucket, does it come in a Mylar bag? How long will the wheat berries last unopened? Thank you. Never used wheat berries before.

[@GrainsandGrit]

Like, forever.

[@sandievancamp9986]

I just bought my mill the new one you did a Video one. Can you please help me with what wheat berries to buy. I’m new to all this. I make a lot of cookies,brownies, cinn rolls, bread. I wanna buy the right one in 25 pounds. Thank you so much

[@GrainsandGrit]

For quick breads like cookies and such, I would start off with a soft white wheat.

[@kathysimindinger8753]

Do they have any soft wheat berry options?

[@GrainsandGrit]

Not at this time. But PHG does: grainsandgrit.com/phg

[@tominkazhanychova]

Felicia. What did you do with all the food you baked that day? Just wondering. THanks.

[@GrainsandGrit]

We ate it lol I have a large family so all of this was used in a few days!

[@paulinek1967]

Felicia, how do you store your grains both long and short term? I know you are in FL like I am. I lost a bunch of grain to pantry moths and was gutted. They were in sealed glass jars. I couldn't believe the moths were able to get into them.

[@GrainsandGrit]

Oh wow. I have a video about that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXy6iYyJg9SElbs

[@carolinelwalker1184]

Do you have a baking book

[@GrainsandGrit]

I have video courses with recipe booklets, but not an actual cookbook yet: grainsandgrit.com/grainsandgritcourses/

[@dev-the-hammer]

How do they treat the grain for insects?

[@susanolson4486]

Enjoyed all the comparisons! Thank you! Do you ever sift your flour after milling it? My breads don’t seem to rise much and I’m wondering if it’s because I’m not sifting it. Newbie here.

[@vernonbowling5136]

I find by layering the active dry yeast after it has risen in the water and sugar I get a nice rise on my breads. 1 cup flour add risen yeast Second cup flour add more risen yeast . Do this until your flour has water and yeast in each layer and be sure to mix each layer before adding more flour and yeast. Hope this helps, it works well for my breads.

[@mamabird2434]

I never ever sift any of my wheats I get perfect rises everytime. I figure since God designed it for our bodies who am I to decide to take part of it out.🤷‍♀️ I had the beginning doorstops hockey pucks you name it but that’s called learning and experience. Keep trying things and techniques in the end you will find what works best in your hands

[@GrainsandGrit]

Nope I don’t sift. Only recipe I sift is for biscuits but even then I’m not making white flour or even truly sifting anything out. Just making sure no large chunks are in the flour and fluffing things up 😀

[@galefields5471]

Be sure you autolyse the flour and water together before adding the other ingredients. I warm the water, mix with the flour, and let it set 30 minutes. Then add all the other ingredients and knead. It has been a game changer for me. Autolysing gives the bran a chance to absorb the moisture and soften. Also helps in gluten development.

[@ANUTD171]

do you have protein numbers for these wheats

[@GrainsandGrit]

They get their wheat tested every harvest, and I know they had that information there when I toured their farm. I suggest emailing or even calling them to ask! That way you can get the most up-to-date info :-)

[@charmingfrock101]

Their website has a few broken links. Yecora, Turkey Red, and Smith Gold.

[@GrainsandGrit]

They're just sold out on some items at the time. Or some items they've discontinued, but haven't taken the page down.

[@diggerobones]

The malt flavor would lend itself to the cheese factory brown bread

[@rhondalandgren7478]

how fine should I grind?

[@GrainsandGrit]

Whatcha making? For most things, I mill on the finest setting.

[@speakingconstitution]

Felicia, the coupon code is not working, it keeps telling me that the coupon code has reached its limit

[@GrainsandGrit]

Have you ever ordered from them before?

[@speakingconstitution]

@@GrainsandGrityes, independent of any promotion so why would that matter? If this code is for only 1time buyers that needs to be disclosed in the videos or description.

[@speakingconstitution]

Also, I not gave the butler’s gold as the star dust was not available at the time. The star dust is what I was trying to purchase today with the code to no avail.

[@GrainsandGrit]

@@speakingconstitution ah yes, it’s only good for your first purchase. I have mentioned that before but so sorry if I didn’t mention it in this video!

[@vernonbowling5136]

I'm naming you the next time my doctor says I need to lose weight 🤨

[@galefields5471]

I’ve used the 4G StarDust. It is great for bread. Lovely light color and a wonderful flavor.

[@GrainsandGrit]

Love Star Dust!!!
