Can I mix fresh ground red berry flour with store bought white flour?

I sometimes find that 100% whole wheat is a bit to heavy for me to eat, so I was wondering?

To make a lighter loaf, can mix fresh ground red berry flour with store bought white flour?

If I can, what would change in my measuring?

I bake many of the available recipes containing WW / AP flour combinations substituting my freshly milled wheat berries for the WW, and it works great. Go for it.

Be careful.

 

Sometimes processed flour mixed with freshly milled w grain can cause an explosion.
