I fresh mill my grain as well and would love to know how much fresh milled grain you add to your organic Costco flour.

Just play around with it a bit until you find a texture and taste you like. Start with 10% substitutions until you find what’s right for you.

Subscribed! I love your aesthetic and your dedication to your family and your business. I'm in awe. I have a dream of starting a micro bakery. I'm in the "giving it away to friends and family" phase lol. You're an inspiration. Can't wait for more content :) Bless you

Thank you so much. And that’s where I think most micro bakers start with gifting and then it slowly grows from there ❤️❤️❤️

This is so beautiful, I've got tears of joy in my eyes. I love what you are doing, dear fellow Mama. I, too, am a Mama. My eldest of seven children urged me last year to start selling the bread I had been baking for the family all of her life, to help me continue to raise my youngest child as I no longer have the help of a husband. I created a Facebook page for my bread, set up with a few local markets, and have been slowly growing my customer base since May of 2023. I had never heard of the term "micro bakery" until today, where I saw it somewhere and it caused me to look into it. And I found your video as a result. I want to look into the oven you mentioned -- Simply Bread. I've also not heard of that till just now. The breads I bake are from organic flour that I mill fresh just before use in my home kitchen, with instant yeast, but I would like to branch into sourdough as well. Maybe something on my own little Facebook page will encourage you or other readers. I'm not sure if links will post here on KZfaq, but in case it does work, here it is: facebook.com/WildflowerBreadsBC And if that does not work, just look up "Wildflower Breads" on Facebook. I am located in a small community called 108 Mile Ranch in BC, Canada. God bless you, your family, and the bread that you lovingly provide for all who eat it. <3 In Christ, Christine Lewis

Hi! Thank you!!! I called a local farmers group and they were able to connect me to a local grower. Maybe call your local county agriculture sector. And see if they can connect you with any wheat farmers or search online for any growers in your state.

Very sweet ending! We homeschooled our 4 children - all through college now - adults, gainfully employed! We had a cow/calf farm operation and a tearoom which our children worked in and that’s what put them through college. They learned a lot of life skills helping us with our businesses…not always easy, but would never trade it in a millions years. KUDOS to you! (What type of commercial oven is that? It looks fantastic to be able to bake so many loaves at once!!)
@karstandsons4 ай бұрын
Thank you so much for sharing your story with me! I find so much encouragement with families that have homeschooled and their children are grown. ❤️ especially knowing you worked your own business along side them. It really can be challenging sometimes but I would never want to change it. So thank you. My oven is a Simply Bread oven and it’s hands down why I’ve been able to scale and still keep my family routine manageable.

It is not a Rofco B40 (But that is such a great option too) my oven is a Simply Bread oven and I got my stand for it off Amazon. I think the Rofco 40 might be a similar footprint so the same stand might work. God bless you too. Thanks again for reaching out. amzn.to/3IzSCY4

That's awesome and toddlers are so fun even if sometimes the work takes a but longer. I actually got my baskets from Simply Bread themselves they sell a whole kit. They are a little big for my loaves that are about 850g unbaked. But there are some smaller ones on Amazon that would be great too www.amazon.com/Gejoy-Banneton-Proofing-Sourdough-Scrapers/dp/B0C379W9MH/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1HJ530AKWE6HH&keywords=banneton%2Bbasket%2Bgoejoy&qid=1706148309&sprefix=banneton%2Bbasket%2Bgoejoy%2Caps%2C175&sr=8-4&th=1karstandsons-20 This is an affiliates link so as such an earn a small percentage from your purchase.
