Hi there. When I first started baking my own wheat bread, I made a lot of door stops. I mill my own flour. I get spelt wheat berries from Wheat Montana. I use 1 cup white flour for each loaf of bread and add dough enhancer. You can make your own dough enhancer (which is what I do since I bake a lot of bread) or buy it on line. I also add powdered milk--but a special type available on the King Arthur website. They have lots of great information and products for bakers. My friend uses the same products but in her bread machine. Dough enhancers are great for increasing rise and keeping bread fresh longer. Good luck!
