Budgies Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 (edited) Does anyone successfully use the softgrain flour (ie white flour with some wholegrains added) in their breadmaker? Do I use the Basic setting (as for all white strong flour) or the Wholemeal setting? Help!! Sue x Edited March 27, 2007 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard T Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Hi Sue, A quick google reveals that white softgrain flour should be baked the same way as ordinary strong white flour; i.e. on the Basic programme, not the wholewheat (or meal - whichever one it is - can never remember). We've been using the famous Panasonic breadmaker since we moved in October and haven't bought a loaf since. And only two disasters: one when we forgot to put the paddle back and one when we forgot to add the water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 I've done exactly the same things Richard! I often mix strong white flour with a lovely one called organic cotswold crunch. the crunch flour on it's own is too much, but mixed with the white it's fabbie. Enjoy your loaves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budgies Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 Thanks very much Richard! My own prowess at using t'internet is fabled in our family - I spent half an hour searching for the answer to this question the other night, to no avail! Very grateful for the reply, would offer to send you a slice but you've got one - hooray! Clare - sounds yummy! Sue x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 I'll have a go too when I get time I like the fact that it's produced just down the road from here. I intend to go on a visit one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
