My goal in life is to be THAT PERSON , that bring brioche , jam and homemade complciated things to diner parties , so people hate me for it but it taste so good you can't exactly say anything
I love that i love you for saying that and yes you should 100 percent do that i also aspire to be that hoe that everyone wants to hate but cant cause their too damn amazing. Hahaha
I am one of those hoe's. It feels so, so good (especially around Christmas time when everyone looks forward to all that goodness.) I just ask for two things in return - 1 - liquor (for making extracts, of course) 2 - absolutely, positively no fucking fruitcakes. :)

@@dearmalaysiaWhat's even worse is that most of the people who hoarded that flour probably don't know the first thing about cooking or baking or even how quickly flour can spoil...They'll just ruin it...
This reminds me of my late husband. He passed away a couple months ago but was huge on making his own flour! I didn’t ever have to buy it before and even now I refuse to get it at the store. RIP Herman ❤️
This mill is sold out everywhere. I don't know if they stopped making it, if this video caused the shortage, or if people are just buying them all up because of COVID-19.
I’m laughing so hard because I found this video by not finding flour at the grocery store then being curious about whether or not flour can be reasonably made at home...... the pandemic struggle is real
Nice job! I'm a miller and you pretty much nailed it. Yeast will die at 118° but it's best to keep it below 110°. Endosperm will actually break down best at 70°-80° in my experience so when you're milling in a one pass system like this mini mill, I would definitely suggest milling frozen grain. In larger mills the flour passes through a sifter and the overs are sent back through the mill to be re-ground so if you wanted true 100% whole wheat flour in this system you could just mill, sift, re-mill the overs, and repeat until there's nothing left to mill.
I’ve been baking my own bread for about 42 years. I love watching your videos. You’re a great teacher but also interesting to watch. Another reason for milling your own flour, is that by the time whole wheat flour reaches the grocery store shelves, the fats inside have already gone rancid. With fresh milled flour so much more of the nutrients have been preserved and the fat is still healthy.
Whole meal freshly milled flour is unlike anything we ever expected. After having followed food plans that involved buying sprouted grain bread from the store and baking (trying to) with whole wheat flour from well known brands - we felt like someone was holding out on us! Freshly milled wheat (even with all the bran) is not bitter in the least. Not dense. Nice and soft. It's almost like cake/bread. AND it feels like you just ate food (instead of a carb). The nutrient values are incredible (ditch most of your supplements). We really were shocked and as a bread eating household, we are very excited. As far as extra work - scooping grain out of a jar less mess and fuss than flour out of a bag. Easier to keep fresh, less waste, more cost effective. We're big fans.
Dude!! My mom is in constant need of specific flour... she’s constantly watching her carb intake (she’s a diabetic who is also a recovering bread addict...). So she’s got me checking the Asian grocery stores for specific flours... soy flour, green bean flour, chick pea flour, etc... THIS VIDEO IS HER ANSWER!! Thank you Josh... 😘💋💋

Try a mortar and pestle, it's pretty fun as opposed to the labor of making a mill and you can choose the consistency while watching how it's made into flour
it did too, my local library just put wheat seeds on the free seed library so I checked some out.. why not lol might as well. I live in Arizona though so I might have to wait till October to plant them XD
You inspired me to buy a mill Josh and that's what I went out and did (Found a demo version on sale). Sourced some einkorn wheat berries and made some amazing 100% wholegrain einkorn bread, Soooo good! Einkorn tip: When replacing a recipe that calls for off the self all purpose flour, just ensure you use 1/3 less liquid
First: Congrats on the 100k, your channel has been a really improvement in my own kitchen and cooking skills. Second: This video comes to me very hand helpful since I'm worried about what is in my own bread when I buy it from a brand (specially mold bread) I'm from México and there's just ONE option: Bimbo (well there are lots of options BUT this brand is just a monopoly over here making it the only option even if is labelled as another brand the same factory always is the same) and this brand has a really high amount of sugar, Mexico has a huge diabetes problem and honestly is not really the brand's fault but it becomes a factor when you remember how sandwiches are present in prepared lunchs at home. So yeah, thank you, you deserve it bro

I’ve seen wheat grinders aka grain mills go for as much as $1500 or more, so realistically $250 is a bargain considering it’s a long term investment purchase.
As someone who comes from a long line of wheat farmers, I can definitely get behind this video! Thank you for shedding some light on the importance of the process.
it's not r/whooosh, sarcasm and joke aren't interchangeable, even if butthurt people try to pass off sarcasm as a joke when people take them seriously. If it was a joke it would be at least a tiny bit funny, but it's just a spiteful whine about not having a yard. Leaving it open if someone wants to legitimately tell you to stop whining because there's a hundred ways to find land you can rent or use for free in your community. If you wanted it to be a joke you would say "Ah, wonderful, having just acquired a 4000 acre estate from my late uncle, this will be a perfect way to assimilate the wheat industry, rise to the top, and become the richest gluten mogul in the world!"
Here in 2021 and you talking about 100k subs. Now you have 3.3 million. I am a journeyman chef myself and you are my number 1 go to guy on youtube for food ideas. Thanks Josh!
I love you i love your channel and your making me a better human in general even without cooking hahaha. I have to follow a very strict diet due to medical reasons and seeing someone lively and upbeat and talk about food and just life in general melts my stress away especially because i have no choice but to make everything except whole fruit veg and raw nuts from scratch basically if its processed even slightly i have to make it myself because its crucial for me to know everything thats in it and the only way to do that is take control over the process. So seeing someone fo it for joy and not because they have to really pleases me immensely. I wish more people were like you so maybe i would be able to go out to eat or even eat a friends houses or pick up food on the road and not have my daily life be preparing picnics so i can eat wherever i go haha. But instead the majority of the world seems to rely either completely or mostly on processes foods high in salt and sugar even if the recipe doesnt require it. Among other ingredients that are merely fillers or preservatives. No thanks i like eating things seasonally and prefer stuff that wont outlive me haha. This is soooo fascinating. Id love to see more back to basics or traditional food processes etc. Food history maybe? Or some traditional recipes that are locally sourced no fancy ingredients or out of season stuff etc.
I can buy a pack of burgers for less than grinding up my own beef, the point is having the return in investment and having the satisfaction of doing it on your own. You’re not required by law to buy one. You can continue to use flour.
I've been using my komo mill for years now and it's the absolute best purchase I've ever made. When you consider the benefits in health, digestion, TASTE, etc, it pays for itself very quickly. I saved up for a couple years, but for any on the fence, the Komo Mio (my model of choice) is a pretty entry level price when you consider it's a major kitchen appliance. It's also a beautiful counter addition with a minimal footprint, and made from sustainable materials. I know from a distance it seems extra but, from the mouth of a regular home cook, I promise it's not! It's super user friendly (I've never taken the temp--if the flour seems super warm to the touch you're just grinding too fine for that particular grain) and accessible for many if you're willing to put a few pennies away. Long live the milling revolution!
Thanks! Would love to see more on this. Was a bit disappointed that you only used 20-30% of it in a bread. Would be interesting to see a video where you use 100% "home made" flour. Maybe you can find a better grain with higher protein? (if that was your problem)
FYI he’s not wrong in that blending for flour is very ineffective in comparison to a mill however it DOES work. I’ve been baking my own gluten, sugar and dairy free foods for a while now and I make my own Oat flour, almond flour, hazelnut flour and more all with a small personal blender. It requires a bit of shaking and smacking to keep the ingredients moving and blending but it does work. Better to try with something you got to discover you like it than to never try at all because you don’t wish to buy something in an experiment
Your short monologue at the end about all of the processes of growing, transportation, milling etc, reminded me of a college course I took that stressed meditation and mindfulness. You should title this “The Tao of Flour”.
The only thing I gotta disagree with is that you don't have to dumb it down with crappy wheat from the grocery store with all of the good stuff taken out to make a good bread product. I've made your hamburger buns (dude, amazing) with 100% fresh ground hard white wheat (with my Mockmill 200) and they turn out amazing and way healthy. I make pizza dough with the same wheat and it is off the chain good. Josh- I want to see more videos where we learn how to make stuff with the real thing: 100% fresh ground wheat. We need to eat good and take care of our bodies.
Date time stamp. Just a reminder of how thankful you were at this time for the then 100,000 subscribers. What a beautiful testament to your progression.❤
I recently started following your channel and absolutely love the content! Would you consider making a follow up video on how to make different flours for different uses? Flours like; “all-purpose”, cake flour, pastry flour, flour for making sourdough bread, etc.
Hey, been enjoying your videos. I've been doing from scratch everything you can imagine, for decades. Decided I wanted a good one 3 days ago, found a really cool, large, unused mill at the thrift shop. $300 older model for.......$2.00!!! Unfreaking used!
It's so amazing how rapid your channel has grown in 2 weeks. In this video, you thanked people for 100k subs and right now at the end of May 2021, you are at 4.29m subs. You earned it with premium content, dude. Keep it up!
Thanks for the video! I have a milling attachment for my KitchenAid mixer. It would be GREAT if you could put together a series on ways to use your milled flour! At least I know it would really help me! I’ve never had much luck with sourdough *hangs head in shame* …I used to make delicious cinnamon oatmeal raisin bread but, in later years it just ain’t happ’nin! Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks!
Omgggg I was just tryna figure out how to make flour and I was not expecting to seeeee youuuuu 😂! I normally see you on shorts but you on here like FORREALLLL
Been baking my own bread for about 3 months now and I can’t imagine going back to store bought bread. Now I’m looking at milling my own grains into flour I’m hooked.

You can pick from: -this is the grain to sow OR -tell me do you wanna grow Anyway, I spent way too much time on this than is reasonable. have a nice day lol
Today, while surrounded by Chinese takeout, I decided that when I move out of the US I will make all my meals and try to buy as little processed items as possible. I’m currently in recovery from a food addiction and eating disorder, and I think that putting effort into my meals and what goes into my body will allow me to appreciate food more and have a good relationship with it. Thank you for going out of your way to be “extra” and putting care and love into what you prepare😁
I know this an older video, but I've been going through a bunch of your content, and I just want to say that I love it. You're a pretty awesome guy, and make great videos. Solid humor, solid tutorials. Keep it up my man, too quality shit here.
making your bread from grain you milled is the best bread, by far. and honestly, a lot easier than people think. certainly was easier than I ever thought. I use a very rudimentary recipe, one rise, no kneading, it's simple and makes a loaf better than anything store bought. I'm not big on bread either, but my kids use it for their lunches and request it for snacks
@@cherylyingstbartel1457 14oz flour 14oz water (or milk) 2table spoon oil (butter, olive oil, whatever) 1table spoon sugar (I like to use honey, but any sugar works) 1 teaspoon salt 2.5 teaspoons yeast Mix, let rest 20-30 minutes. Shape, rise, and bake at 350 for 45 minutes
For those of you who want an off grid mill. I personally LOVE my Country Grain Mill and I'm made flour so fine, hand cranking it, that I could actually make pasta dough that turned out amazing. Plus, I just ordered the Nut Butter plates, so not only can I make flour with the mill, I can also make nut butters or even grind oily beans like coffee.
I got the Salzburger MT12 grain mill, which I love as it is t the only electric mill that uses Natural Granite mill stones. All the others (including the one he used) use binded conundrum which uses a resin, filler, or other binding agents. Plus Conundrum is an aluminum oxide, which is not something I'd want wearing into the flour i will be eating for the next 20--50 years. But I agree with you I did not get my Salzburger until after I had the Country Grain Mill, as the electric grinder can become just a heavy paper weight in a crisis. Plus the Country mill is equally charming, I keep it clamped onto my kitchen island full time even though I'm not using it for now.
Watching this video only months after he posted it... 100k subscribers to 900k all in the span of 2019. Man's gonna hit 1 million by February at this rate. Keep it up!
So…only use 50% or so of my fresh ground flour for my bread dough? Wouldn’t that defeat the purpose of grinding my own? Are you saying that I still need to buy store bought flour if I want my bread to be good?
Hi there, can you explain why you can't use 100% of your freshly milled flour to make bread. You mentioned using perhaps half unbleached flour to mix in. Thanks!
@@mobboj7338 yea let me drop ya some maths here. So I have a 1000$ phone I got a plan 2 years 10$ a months 1 year= 12 months 12 months x2= 24 10x24=240$ 240$ over 2 years tacked on top of a service that I need anyways, its not really a thousand dollar phone anymore. Its much different than a 250$ expense of a purely "extra" nature, well my fancy cell phone isn't a need it's a purchase I use daily that has made some aspects of my life easier. It also takes such small payments that its barely noticeable. Unless you actually pay a grand for that newest phone.
They’ve gotten cheaper as they’ve gotten more popular. I’m my teenage Diet-for-a-small-planet vegetarian phase 20 years ago a mill capable of flour fine enough for bread baking was 500-600 bucks for the most basic of the basic electric models. Hand cranked models were cheaper but..ain’t nobody got time for that.
@@JoshuaWeissman What planet or society do you live in where a small kitchen appliance whose technology is over 4,000 years old (except motor) would cost "thousands" of dollars? Hey buddy, I have this thing that cuts grass, you just pull a string a walk behind it and the grass gets shorter - you can even feed your chickens or goats the cuttings. I'll sell it to you for a great deal of $9,999. Think of all the money you will save on animal feed!!! I can have someone drop one off to you within a week. Deal? I take paypal. Thanks.
2:28 Not only that. But if you mill your own flour you know that you are getting all the nutrients that come from wheat in your flour. No need to go to the store and look for floud that has what you want. Just make it, and it's better than any flour you find at the grocery.
Kym van der Kaag dry the leaves for about 2 years and then crush them and roll inside of full leaves across your thighs and wet the ends so they stick together
You can use 100% milled too, but I recommed washing the grains and letting them sit a few hours before milling. The the grains can have quite a lot of toxins from molds on the surface and it can build up over a long time. As for the food processor, I'm sure it could handle a few millings, but I'm worried that the blades could lose their edge fast.
Watching this now because with this Corona Virus Crisis going on, it's been impossible to find any all-purpose flour!! Thank you for the video. I will definitely invest in a milling machine soon!

I love you i love your channel and your making me a better human in general even without cooking hahaha. I have to follow a very strict diet due to medical reasons and seeing someone lively and upbeat and talk about food and just life in general melts my stress away especially because i have no choice but to make everything except whole fruit veg and raw nuts from scratch basically if its processed even slightly i have to make it myself because its crucial for me to know everything thats in it and the only way to do that is take control over the process. So seeing someone fo it for joy and not because they have to really pleases me immensely. I wish more people were like you so maybe i would be able to go out to eat or even eat a friends houses or pick up food on the road and not have my daily life be preparing picnics so i can eat wherever i go haha. But instead the majority of the world seems to rely either completely or mostly on processes foods high in salt and sugar even if the recipe doesnt require it. Among other ingredients that are merely fillers or preservatives. No thanks i like eating things seasonally and prefer stuff that wont outlive me haha. This is soooo fascinating. Id love to see more back to basics or traditional food processes etc. Food history maybe? Or some traditional recipes that are locally sourced no fancy ingredients or out of season stuff etc.
Your videos have been my greatest source of therapy for the past few years! P A P A happy.
“It’s really not that expensive”
It’s literally $264.99
That’s not that expensive. It’s fairly priced, he didn’t say it would be cheap
Mustache Man I can buy an oz of exotic for less lmao
I can buy a pack of burgers for less than grinding up my own beef, the point is having the return in investment and having the satisfaction of doing it on your own. You’re not required by law to buy one. You can continue to use flour.
@@SygmaCams it's relative. A house for $10,000 is insanely cheap and a beer for $50 is crazy expensive.
@@jeremyfisher1833 Bingo!
Well said.
I've been using my komo mill for years now and it's the absolute best purchase I've ever made. When you consider the benefits in health, digestion, TASTE, etc, it pays for itself very quickly. I saved up for a couple years, but for any on the fence, the Komo Mio (my model of choice) is a pretty entry level price when you consider it's a major kitchen appliance. It's also a beautiful counter addition with a minimal footprint, and made from sustainable materials. I know from a distance it seems extra but, from the mouth of a regular home cook, I promise it's not! It's super user friendly (I've never taken the temp--if the flour seems super warm to the touch you're just grinding too fine for that particular grain) and accessible for many if you're willing to put a few pennies away. Long live the milling revolution!
Thanks! Would love to see more on this. Was a bit disappointed that you only used 20-30% of it in a bread. Would be interesting to see a video where you use 100% "home made" flour. Maybe you can find a better grain with higher protein? (if that was your problem)
I have done 100% hard red wheat bread, you need to use more yeast and let it rise longer for a bread loaf.
Seriously this kind of stuff has always been your best content
FYI he’s not wrong in that blending for flour is very ineffective in comparison to a mill however it DOES work. I’ve been baking my own gluten, sugar and dairy free foods for a while now and I make my own Oat flour, almond flour, hazelnut flour and more all with a small personal blender. It requires a bit of shaking and smacking to keep the ingredients moving and blending but it does work. Better to try with something you got to discover you like it than to never try at all because you don’t wish to buy something in an experiment
The first time I've learnt to make burritos at home from this guy! 😁😀 Watching all the way from central Australia, Alice Springs , NT
Me: wow this is so extra
Also me: _i w a n t o n e_
Also also me: wait I don’t have money
Also also also me: _m a k e a f l o u r m i l l_
me
mind blown
Your short monologue at the end about all of the processes of growing, transportation, milling etc, reminded me of a college course I took that stressed meditation and mindfulness. You should title this “The Tao of Flour”.
Please tell me you watched good eats as a youngin
Taylor Waddell Good Eats is forever and always one of my favorite shows.
Joshua Weissman Alton Brown is the best!!
It’s 2021. They have a great reset coming for us. It’s smart to get back to the basics our great grandparents knew...
The only thing I gotta disagree with is that you don't have to dumb it down with crappy wheat from the grocery store with all of the good stuff taken out to make a good bread product. I've made your hamburger buns (dude, amazing) with 100% fresh ground hard white wheat (with my Mockmill 200) and they turn out amazing and way healthy. I make pizza dough with the same wheat and it is off the chain good. Josh- I want to see more videos where we learn how to make stuff with the real thing: 100% fresh ground wheat. We need to eat good and take care of our bodies.
Date time stamp. Just a reminder of how thankful you were at this time for the then 100,000 subscribers. What a beautiful testament to your progression.❤
I recently started following your channel and absolutely love the content! Would you consider making a follow up video on how to make different flours for different uses? Flours like; “all-purpose”, cake flour, pastry flour, flour for making sourdough bread, etc.
“We just hit 100,000 subscribers”
:)
Over 1.5m now. Good for you, man! You totally deserve it, your videos are top quality
When Joshua will start to grow his own food the entire food industry will collapse
The greatest food video ever made ....respect Maestro ! seriously. Ive never seen a greatest way to take things seriously but at the same time Smart.
2019 Joshua: Thank you for the 100K followers!!
2020 Me: 👀👀 He has damn near 1M in less than a year?! How he do that?!?
R. Johnson It’s gotta be the B-roll.
@@booksivy169 its probably tiktok
And now he’s at 2M
R. Johnson 2.35 million
Look at the quality at 100k thats what he did to get there
Making my own flour never crossed my mind even once in my life till this point. I now want a mill and to make my own flour. Damn you Josh 😆
Hey, been enjoying your videos. I've been doing from scratch everything you can imagine, for decades. Decided I wanted a good one 3 days ago, found a really cool, large, unused mill at the thrift shop. $300 older model for.......$2.00!!! Unfreaking used!
It's so amazing how rapid your channel has grown in 2 weeks. In this video, you thanked people for 100k subs and right now at the end of May 2021, you are at 4.29m subs. You earned it with premium content, dude. Keep it up!
This is like step 25 in my journey to being extra, way after grinding my own coffee beans and slightly before growing my own vegetables.
Plant your own wheat😂😂
Literally same 😂
That "it's 2019", really hit. Such an amazing year followed by literal hell on earth.
It'll be worse. Grow a pair.
Wow 10 sec in and subscribed
Watching this video again today and noticed you got 1 million followers now!!!! Wow, incredible growth, congrats!
Thanks for the video! I have a milling attachment for my KitchenAid mixer. It would be GREAT if you could put together a series on ways to use your milled flour! At least I know it would really help me! I’ve never had much luck with sourdough *hangs head in shame* …I used to make delicious cinnamon oatmeal raisin bread but, in later years it just ain’t happ’nin! Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks!
Omgggg I was just tryna figure out how to make flour and I was not expecting to seeeee youuuuu 😂! I normally see you on shorts but you on here like FORREALLLL
"Joshua, do you really need to make your bread from scratch in every recipe?"
"Hahahaa I'm about to make my own FLOUR"
Been baking my own bread for about 3 months now and I can’t imagine going back to store bought bread. Now I’m looking at milling my own grains into flour I’m hooked.
Hey Joshua,
will you post a video on advanced bread making. Your no-knead works perfectly but i want to step up my game. thanks! love the videos
gaara97531 Oh absolutely! They are coming. Next one after this is going to be a baguette recipe. But you didn’t hear that from me. 🤫🥖
You are my 2021 unforgettable teacher and holp me spend time fast ...thank thank thank👍👍👍👍👍👍
"some people like to freeze their grains"
my musical obsessed brain:
*FREEZE YOUR GRAAAAAAIIIIIIIINS*
SWIM IN THE WHEAT GET LOST IN THE PLANES
You two are my new favorites
@@canigetahoyah6028 ok so me and a few people on a musicals discord server came up with some more lyrics, here's what we have:
I've dated 10 farmers
They start to get hazy
All of them left
cause they said i'm too lazy
so i said "i'll be my own farmer instead"
sowing wheat to make my own bread
I've learned all the names
of all of my crops
i'll only stop growing
when my heart stops
i grow my own veggies cause i am alone
but hey, look at the seeds that i've sown
*grain noises*
Freeze your grains
Swim in the wheat
Get lost in the plains
Don't get in your head
just make the damn bread
It won't be a pain
just freeze your grain
We also have some for Meant to be Yours:
I was meant to be yours
we were meant to eat corn
fresh tomato and cheese
then the basil is torn
we will cook 'till we die
baste, bake, 'till we both bleed
you and i both must fry
home grown veggies from seeds
AND for a limited time offer of just $19.99, we'll throw in -a second Slap Chop- some Greatest Showman absolutely not free! You can pick from:
-this is the grain to sow
OR
-tell me do you wanna grow
Anyway, I spent way too much time on this than is reasonable. have a nice day lol
H E A T H E R S
I watch all of your videos because being extra is what its about. Flex it Boss!
It only took you 3 months to double it! You're at 199K now. :D
Today, while surrounded by Chinese takeout, I decided that when I move out of the US I will make all my meals and try to buy as little processed items as possible. I’m currently in recovery from a food addiction and eating disorder, and I think that putting effort into my meals and what goes into my body will allow me to appreciate food more and have a good relationship with it. Thank you for going out of your way to be “extra” and putting care and love into what you prepare😁
“We were so caught up in how, that we never bothered to stop and ask why”
I know this an older video, but I've been going through a bunch of your content, and I just want to say that I love it. You're a pretty awesome guy, and make great videos. Solid humor, solid tutorials. Keep it up my man, too quality shit here.
Who would’ve ever thought this would become so useful. Can’t get flour anywhere
making your bread from grain you milled is the best bread, by far. and honestly, a lot easier than people think. certainly was easier than I ever thought. I use a very rudimentary recipe, one rise, no kneading, it's simple and makes a loaf better than anything store bought. I'm not big on bread either, but my kids use it for their lunches and request it for snacks
Can you share your recipe?
@@cherylyingstbartel1457
14oz flour
14oz water (or milk)
2table spoon oil (butter, olive oil, whatever)
1table spoon sugar (I like to use honey, but any sugar works)
1 teaspoon salt
2.5 teaspoons yeast
Mix, let rest 20-30 minutes. Shape, rise, and bake at 350 for 45 minutes
I just made dough for a pie instead of buying it , now youtube led me here like if it was saying 'Time to make your own flour too'.
Bruh
For those of you who want an off grid mill. I personally LOVE my Country Grain Mill and I'm made flour so fine, hand cranking it, that I could actually make pasta dough that turned out amazing. Plus, I just ordered the Nut Butter plates, so not only can I make flour with the mill, I can also make nut butters or even grind oily beans like coffee.
I got the Salzburger MT12 grain mill, which I love as it is t the only electric mill that uses Natural Granite mill stones. All the others (including the one he used) use binded conundrum which uses a resin, filler, or other binding agents. Plus Conundrum is an aluminum oxide, which is not something I'd want wearing into the flour i will be eating for the next 20--50 years. But I agree with you I did not get my Salzburger until after I had the Country Grain Mill, as the electric grinder can become just a heavy paper weight in a crisis. Plus the Country mill is equally charming, I keep it clamped onto my kitchen island full time even though I'm not using it for now.
'How to make our own flour at home'
Later in the video: you need flour for your flour to make bread
That's my #1 question. Why?!
Watching this video only months after he posted it... 100k subscribers to 900k all in the span of 2019. Man's gonna hit 1 million by February at this rate.
Keep it up!
So…only use 50% or so of my fresh ground flour for my bread dough? Wouldn’t that defeat the purpose of grinding my own? Are you saying that I still need to buy store bought flour if I want my bread to be good?
Thank you for this video!!!! Flour became so expensive in the market so now I am going to wheat and go to the mill
Hi there, can you explain why you can't use 100% of your freshly milled flour to make bread. You mentioned using perhaps half unbleached flour to mix in. Thanks!
1 year after you got 1 million new sub, you r doing a good job keep it up! Ur special
"not that expensive" is a fairly meaningless expression my dude.
Expensive is relative! Some people are cheapskates!
Bet you have a $1000 dollar phone lmao
Mobbo J For real😂
@@mobboj7338 yea let me drop ya some maths here.
So I have a 1000$ phone
I got a plan
2 years 10$ a months
1 year= 12 months
12 months x2= 24
10x24=240$
240$ over 2 years tacked on top of a service that I need anyways, its not really a thousand dollar phone anymore. Its much different than a 250$ expense of a purely "extra" nature, well my fancy cell phone isn't a need it's a purchase I use daily that has made some aspects of my life easier. It also takes such small payments that its barely noticeable. Unless you actually pay a grand for that newest phone.
@@mobboj7338 but I use my phone like half my day everyday, I'd use a fucking flour mill how often....?
this is dope AF. people that don't get this don't realize the art in the process...which is cool too and all since art is in the eye of the beholder.
Uhhhhhhhh not that expensive? The cheapest one was $250! Eek!
HEY JESS CHAMBERS I guess when I first was looking I was expecting them to be in the thousands. 😂😂😂
They’ve gotten cheaper as they’ve gotten more popular. I’m my teenage Diet-for-a-small-planet vegetarian phase 20 years ago a mill capable of flour fine enough for bread baking was 500-600 bucks for the most basic of the basic electric models. Hand cranked models were cheaper but..ain’t nobody got time for that.
@@JoshuaWeissman What planet or society do you live in where a small kitchen appliance whose technology is over 4,000 years old (except motor) would cost "thousands" of dollars?
Hey buddy, I have this thing that cuts grass, you just pull a string a walk behind it and the grass gets shorter - you can even feed your chickens or goats the cuttings. I'll sell it to you for a great deal of $9,999. Think of all the money you will save on animal feed!!! I can have someone drop one off to you within a week. Deal? I take paypal. Thanks.
Look for a hand mill.
2:28 Not only that. But if you mill your own flour you know that you are getting all the nutrients that come from wheat in your flour. No need to go to the store and look for floud that has what you want. Just make it, and it's better than any flour you find at the grocery.
I'm growing tobacco in my front garden.
How do I make cigarettes?
Kym van der Kaag dry the leaves grind them down and roll them in paper
Kym van der Kaag dry the leaves for about 2 years and then crush them and roll inside of full leaves across your thighs and wet the ends so they stick together
I wpuld have never thought that there would be an answer too that........
Organic Swisher sweets
Dry em, crush em, roll and get lit
so nice that you litterly have videos of every basic food component that people would just buy instead to make something with from a video.
Can you use 100% milled flour? Also, do you not recommend using a vitamix to Mill the flour?
You can use 100% milled too, but I recommed washing the grains and letting them sit a few hours before milling. The the grains can have quite a lot of toxins from molds on the surface and it can build up over a long time. As for the food processor, I'm sure it could handle a few millings, but I'm worried that the blades could lose their edge fast.
Dayum that's madness that in 2019 you were celebrating 100k subs and now you're at over 4 million. Congrats.
"Thanks for the 100,000 subs!"
1 year later: 1.35 M I L L I O N SUBS
**Now its 4.27M**
100k subscribers? Two years later you have 5.38 million! Congratulations on your Success 🎉
Lol. My friend has like 5 acres of wild wheat I though about doing this with.
Watching this now because with this Corona Virus Crisis going on, it's been impossible to find any all-purpose flour!! Thank you for the video. I will definitely invest in a milling machine soon!
Bluds watching in 2024 😂
Here to say proud of you reaching 5.3M subscribers. Another 5.2M since this drop
