Grind of King Arthur White Whole Wheat

Hello, I found this site a little while ago, and registered for the forum.  There is a ton of great information here.  So I thought maybe someone here might be able to shed some light on something.  I use King Arthur white whole wheat flour fairly often, and I recently restocked.  As soon as I touched the flour, I realized it was a much coarser grind than this type of flour has had in the past.  It surprised me because KAF has always been very consistent in the past.  Has anyone else noticed this or heard anything?  It seems unlikely to be just a fluke of the bag that I got,

Sounds like it was probably

Sounds like it was probably just a fluke, anytime I've bought the white whole wheat from KA its always been very fine actually. It is possible though that there making a transition over to a more course texture, but I find it very unlikely. Just use it up for this batch and see what happens afterwards.

Thanks for the reply.  I

Thanks for the reply.  I have always found KAF white whole wheat to be very finely ground as well, until this latest purchase.  I sort of thought that was part of the point of this variety of flour.  I guess I should probably wait to buy more until a new batch comes in to the local stores.
