My flour water mixing ratio with the Ankarsrum. Yours?

Hello,

New user here. Been making bread with the Ankarsrum for some time now (1-2 years), and I found that 1.5 liter of water (that is max for whole corn bread) I need to use ~1.7kg of flour. The more whole corn the wetter it gets, and if the dough is very brown, it's close not being manageable, and I cannot knead it, but have press fit it in the forms.

I only use the hook. Tried the roller, but didn't work with whole corn bread.
