Thoughts on Caputo’s 25kg red flour (see photo)
Good day from here in England!! My thoughts and good wishes are with everyone around the world, wherever you are, in this difficult time ❤️
I’m new to the site, and pretty new to home bread baking. I’ve been making it at home using my bread maker for a long time, but with the lockdown I’ve got more time on my hands than I know what to do with, so I decided to finally bite the bullet and go the whole way by hand. Pretty nervous but wish me luck!! ?
The issue we have here in England right now is getting hold of ingredients during the lockdown, as the whole country has gone baking mad!! Every store has been out of flour, especially bread flour, for weeks, so I’ve been looking online at wholesale suppliers.
The only option I’ve managed to find is the Caputo Red Saccorosso 25kg sack, through Amazon.
Can anyone with experience please advise me whether this is an ok choice for making bread mainly, and maybe pizza dough too? And more importantly I suppose, what it isn’t so great for? Only I don’t want to buy such a big sack only to find it’s limited in its applications in home use.
Oh and I’m baking with fresh yeast if that makes a difference...
Many thanks in advance ?
