You are welcome! You wouldn't believe how much more edible my bread got after I learned that. It went from a brick you could use to build a house to bread. 
The way I've "converted" a couple of my recipes is to make note of the weight of what I used per batch for a while and kept the average of the ones that had a nice crumb but were still lightweight. The other thing that helped was fresh ground wheat that I put into a measuring cup by sprinkling it from a flour scoop. You don't pack it in that way.
