I would love a video on the difference between winter wheat and spring wheat.
The main difference between the winter and spring wheat is when it was planted. The Spring wheat is planted in the spring. The winter wheat is planted in the fall and grows all winter long. As long as they are a hard wheat variety, they typically will both work great for breads. If it is a soft wheat variety, that is better for cookies, muffins, quick breads, etc.
My wife and I live and travel full time in a fifth wheel. It's a myth that you can't cook and bake in a camper like you can in a conventional home. We have our mock mill, kitchen aid stand mixer, and everything else needed just like we did in our home. You just have to be creative and organized. Safe travels, and thanks for the videos!!
Yep! I come across many people that think we have to cook everything over a campfire, lol. Thank you ! Safe travels to you as well!
We just use our RV in the summer, but we too bring all the necessary appliances… Ninja Foodie, Ninja food processor, WonderMill, MitchenAid… 😅… we both love homemade food… so it’s all a must. We also have an oven in our motorhome, my husband and I were very happy when we first saw it! 😅 Indeed you find ways to make it work.
Almost all danes eat rye bread for lunch every day. But no, it doesnt form a good gluten network. So when we make rye bread it is supposed to be very dense and full of seeds and cracked grain kernels. Yum 😋 I just started milling my own flour and now I make my rye bread the traditional way with sourdough 😊🇩🇰
Yum! That sounds delicious! Thanks for sharing!
Excellent, great info, thank you
Thank you so much! I am happy to hear you enjoyed it. Thanks!
Love love einkorn in quick breads, muffins, cinnamon rolls and cookies just love that nutty taste wonderful video of all the grains
Thank you so much! I love how there are so many different grains that give us so many different flavors, and textures!
Thank you for this!
Welcome! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing this!
welcome! ❤
Yes for a RV tour!!! Thanks for posting this info
Ok, I will work on it, may not happen until after the cabin addition is finished
I love mixing in spelt it gives a nice sweetness to the bread
Yes! Spelt makes a lovely addition!
Very informative and thanks for the info regarding the sourdough’s increased ability to get more sour. I ordered the durum wheat to use with my pasta machine but I’ll add kamut now.
Thank you! ❤
Great info! I want to branch out.
You can do it! ❤️
I am SUPER new to milling my own grains. I made your recipe for Fettuccini with Kamut, my husband and I both loved it! I can't wait to try all the different grains. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge, you're a great source of information.
Yay! I am so happy to hear that! Thank you so much!
Oh my gosh, I have been looking for a detailed explanation for all these fresh milled wheat berries. Thank you so much and your way of explaining is awesome! I am subscribed now! I have always been a baker/preserver/cook but after kids left the nest I did much less but low and behold in 2020, to be exact 11/20/20, my sourdough starter was born and I have been an “artsie” baker since and very much self taught. I have all of the grains you have spoken of and use fresh milled Rye in my starter as well as hard red and white, I do add Kamut and or rye to my sourdough breads and love the flavor change. I have yet to use the Emmer and or Einkorn but soon will. I have yet to get creative with yeast breads but I am cooking and baking my moms meals now and she cannot eat the sourdough (toughness) so I will be making yeast breads for her. I have taken your recipes and will start using them. Thank you again! I look forward to more videos and must now go to your page and watch them all! Have a beautiful day!
I am so happy you found me! Yay! That is so wonderful to help your mother! Thank you so much! Happy Baking!
Great info. Just found your video, new subscriber.👍
Thank you so much! I am happy you found me! Thanks!
I would love a tour of the trailer. While I do not live in a trailer I do live in a smaller home. Storage tips would be helpful.
Thank you! I do showcase it pieces in my videos, I haven't made a full video tour yet.
Me too I would love to see are you organize everything in your RV… I used to prepare everything breads before leaving… but maybe I don’t need too… we have an oven in the RV… of course smaller than my home oven… 😅… so it would be nice to see it. I have the same small containers and 5 gallon buckets… I need to buy more grain… and they also have emmer… I don’t know much about it… but, I love to experiment and learn. I often add “bran flour” to my breads and other recipes… it’s the bran I sift… then powder in my Vitamix… I also add okara powder (from my soy milk puree)… dehydrate and powder it… I hate to waste stuff… this is too nutritious to waste. Thank you! I line your video, it’s nice to see how other people use grains. I haven’t been baking much breads with einkorn… although I have a recipe khorasan and einkorn… 😱❤️… I love both too. I also made an einkorn risotto… my son really like it as everyone… it is amazing everything you can make with grains… other cultures have used it much more… so I like to make those recipes.

This may be helpful, My website has a free printable chart of the wheat berry uses & weights here. grainsinsmallplaces.net/grains-in-small-places-printable-library/
You are correct in pronouncing KAMUT
thanks!😉
Great info Kara! Did you ever find a source for emmer? Bluebird Grain Farm has it, and flat rate shipping ($9.99) on your whole order no matter the weight! I bought a one pound bag of emmer just to try, but it comes in larger quantity as well.
Not yet! Thank you for the info! Next time I am in an area I can get packages, I will have to consider this! 😃
this is excellent information, I'm want to buy wheat berries in bulk , 50 pounds , pricing at smaller quantities from whole foods etc can feel predatory , I do have an old friend who was a bulk manager at my local sprouts , I'll knock on his door, and hope he opens , as a vegan it's kinda amazing what a long journey veganism can be , I've been doing it on and off for 40 years , and I never stop finding new pathways
Thank you so much!😊
So I make my own hamster food from various grains and seeds, this is such an interesting video!
oh wow that's cool! Thanks
Oh, I do have a question. I know that a lot of rver’s and van dwellers have issues with mice so have your 5 gallon buckets been affected by that? We have a motorhome and converted van so I’ll be carrying my grains with me when I travel too.
I have not had a mice issue, but Matt is pretty great about keeping any openings to the outside sealed. 😀
We have taken our grains from Montana, to Ohio, to California, and Florida and just about everywhere in between!
@@GrainsInSmallPlaces Great it’s working for you.
❤️
Yes the mobility of using grains while traveling. How do we make that happen?
I have some 5 gallon buckets I load up when I am in areas where I can buy local or areas where I can get mail. Then, for everyday use, I use those square containers I show in the video. My mill has a designated area on our counter, you can see in most of my videos.
@@GrainsInSmallPlaces Thank you. I am thinking along the lines of air travel or staying in a hotel with a kitchenette. Really whole grains cannot be purchased readily when traveling. My thoughts are a good and effective hand mill.
Oh ya that does pose a whole different variety of issues to overcome.
I have a question for you that I can’t seem to find the answer for. I have a batch of hard white wheat berries that I’m not sure about. They don’t smell as fresh as my other grains but they don’t exactly smell bad. I’d hate to lose a fifty pound bag of grain. How can you tell if a batch of grain is no good and can’t be salvaged?
Great question! Typically the only things that will make wheat berries go bad is bugs or moisture. So, if there is no evidence of bugs and no musty/moldy smell I would think it should be fine! Whole Wheat berries can last many many years, and once you mill them, the freshness comes out again! Hope that helps!
Did you end up doing an RV tour?!
Not yet, I haven't.
Is fresh milled flour measured the same as store bought flour? Also, how is fresh milled flour in a bread machine?
I typically will weigh my wheat berries and this is the same weight you will get for flour. BUT, the volume is different. So, one cup of wheat berries will equal more than 1 cup of flour. I don't have a bread machine, but I have reports that it does work, but there is a learning curve to working with fresh milled flour. I have lots of videos to help if interested! Happy Baking!
Hi there, new to your channel so forgive me if you already addressed this in prior videos. was wondering if you have been successful with azure standards grains? Thank you
I have not... yet. That may be coming in a future video, very soon... Thanks for watching!
Well, I certainly hope you'll have time to see this question and answer for me. No matter who was trying to explain this. Everything is so very wordy. Possibly this just cannot be helped.
So I have just a couple questions first one being.
Are you saying that the basic recipe for making a loaf of bread changes when using these wholeberries that we have ground ourselves? So another words, a loaf of bread does not going to be the same amount of water, the same cups of flour, the same yeast, measurement, etc?
And if a person 's only interested in to begin is which is most comparable to all purpose flour and which is most comparable to bread flour.
For now that's all I really want to know.
Thank you
Hi! The wheat berries all have a different amount of moisture in them, and they all develop gluten differently. (and some don't develop gluten at all.) There is not really a quick answer for this. But, I can try my best. It depends on what you are making to determine the kind of wheat berries to use. If you are just starting out, I recommend to use a recipe that is written for fresh milled flour specifically to take the guesswork out. Then when you start to see the consistency of the dough and the texture, it will help when trying to convert recipes. I have a ton of recipes on my blog at www.grainsinsmallplaces.net where I add new ones each week. So, to start out, if you want to make a yeast bread I would recommend to use hard white wheat. If you want to make muffins, cookies, etc. I would recommend to start with soft white wheat. It is more helpful to weigh the wheat berries than it is to use cups when converting recipes. I hope this isn't confusing, and is helpful to you. Happy Baking! There is a learning curve, and we all go through it, so don't give up! You can do this!

That was helpful.... Thank you very very much. 🥰
welcome!
🙏🏻🌹🙏🏻
Thank you!
Yes I would love to hear why you’re traveling and for how long ? I’ve never heard of this very curious like a cat

From NOR CA WINE COUNTRY
We sold everything we owned in 2015 and bought a 5th wheel and truck, we traveled from Ohio to the west coast, and back towards Ohio for a year, we thought that was it, and we would settle down, but then decided we weren't done yet. So, we have been traveling the US fulltime since.

How exciting great for your kids , well stay safe and continue having a great journey.

Thank you! 😊
I prefer hard red as my mainstay wheat has a nutty flavor but hard white is learning whole wheat flour in your flours I love Emmer mixed with hard red I use red 3:1 Emmer be careful not to accidentally get pearled Emmer though
I would love to try Emmer. It is on my list eventually. Thanks!
There is actually a large difference in the protein content and textures of breads mad with hard red and white wheats.
Agree they yield different end products, but generally, they are interchangeable in recipes depending on preference.
Emmer is actually farro. It seems the flour is emmer and the berry is farro. Also, i find the hard red is more pungent. So i tend to prefer the white.
Thanks! I also tend to prefer hard white over hard red, but I like to always mix something else in with it for flavor and softness! 😊
For sour dough starter I use water from boiling pasta - - The sour dough starter will ' Take Off' !!
Remember - pasta is a carb !!
That is a great tip! I haven't heard that before! Thanks for sharing!
Make some shorter videos please on one subject please. I like the info about the wheat berries
Most of my videos are on one subject, like a recipe tutorial. This one was just a video about each wheat berry. I do have many shorts on my channel that go over each individual wheat berry as well.
Is your necklace amber?
Yes! It is an amber necklace made by a fellow traveling RV friend. I have had it for several years. 😊
