25 lbs. of grain will fit in a 5 gallon bucket. When we get our grain, we use a 1 gallon jar as a measuring cup. The grain is transferred to a 1 gallon Mylar bag (10" x 14", 5 mil), toss in an 800cc oxygen absorber, squeeze as much air out as we can, and then heat seal. Don't forget to label with contents and date. The bags are then placed in a 5 gallon bucket only for rodent resistance and physical protection. Over time, the oxygen absorber collects the 21% oxygen left in the bag which makes it look like it was vacuum sealed. Then as grain is needed, we remove and open a single bag from the bucket to fill our 1 gallon jar that stays in the pantry. I've opened 14 year old bags that are as fresh as the day we packed them.
Thank you for this info
Thankyou for this comment..I can't afford the large buckets..I'd like to start with smaller amounts 1st
This is what I was looking for. Thanks so much for sharing🤗
Thank you I'm copying you!😁👍
Please know I am not questioning your wisdom, I greatly appreciate this. Is 800cc standard for wheat berries? I keep reading 300cc and I certainly don’t want to make a mistake with the 1 gal bags.
When I started grinding hard red wheat for bread, my husband was amazed at how great the bread tastes, so much that he went bragging to the neighbors, giving them a loaf.
Ha! Thats awesome!!
That's so funny and I love the story You're a true baker He's bragging about your goods... My father's side of the family were headmaster bakers in northern Germany... If you wanted to learn to be a baker back in the 1900s you'd come live in my great-grandfather's three-story bakery below school...
Hahaha! That's so funny and cute!😅😊😇💖
Can you tell me how to make bread flour or all purpose flour from whole wheat berries?
get a #40 sifter and make your own all purpose flour. We had been grinding our whole wheat flour and buying all purpose. We got the sifter from Breadtopia
When I first got my grain grinder, I purchased small 5-lb bags of several types (hard red, hard white, soft white) so I could learn how to use my grinder to get the correct consistency and also baked experimental loaves of bread for rise, taste, etc. I decided hard white was the best for me: long storage, bakes well with my recipe, but tastes & looks more like the store white my family grew up on. Then I purchased larger buckets for my long term storage :-)
So, the hard white will work for bread baking?? Will it work for sourdough bread?
@@teemom78 yep
I also just use hard white for my bread. I feel like it is the most versatile if you don’t want several different types of wheat berries. I add 1 tablespoon of gluten (sometimes called gluten flour) to help with the rise. I also figure that I can sift out the bran if I want to use it as an all purpose flour for cakes, cookies, etc.
@@dmorr86 thank you!!
Thank you!
Kansas wheat farmer here- Hello from the breadbasket of America!
Awesome!
I use red, hard white and soft white. When you grind fresh flour you get all the real vitamins and minerals and man can you tell the difference in your skin and nails from eating fresh ground wheat germs. When I make bread my entire extended family raves. When I make pancakes and waffles from the soft white… also an extended family favorite. It’s doesn’t have that sour rancid flavor like store , stale ground wheat. One added bonus. You can sprout these grains from Palouse in hard times for nutritious sprouts if you have no access to fresh food in winter. High vitamin c in sprouts and so much more
Last year Wal-Mart had 24# Augason Farms wheat buckets for $18.58 delivered !!!! We bought 40 buckets !!!
Wasn't that an amazing deal?!
Wow🤯
Correction here. Hard red and hard white both have the same protein. Both are great for breads! It’s the SOFT white that has lower protein content making good for pastries.
What about fiber content?
Making the hard red best for survival mode!
@@lindakean7392 do you have any evidence that hard red is better than hard white for long term storage? I’d not heard that.
No I thought storage-wise it all depends on your method of storage…? To clarify my previous message, I thought that the red had more protein.. ie: best for a grid down situation. I don’t think I will care as long as I have some decent bread!
@@lindakean7392 red and white HARD both have the same protein, and I assume same storage ability. I’ve not heard otherwise. Soft white has definitely less protein. I did not know that meant it would not store as well?
Thank you for the info! After this video, I purchased 40 lbs of Rustic Hard Red Winter Wheat Berries from a local farm for $37.
Ur soo lucky u live by a farm. Online that is selling for about 80$
I go to Winco and buy bulk for $35.60 for 40 lbs. But, I'm sure that can change any minute. Stock that up at that price as much as you can. I'm trying to on limited budget. Stay safe and garden folks
@@debwoods6011 I should definitely order more, especially since they don't charge me for shipping.
@@coloradoprepper7238 yes I plan ongoing tomorrow myself to go get what I can and hope it is still the .89 cents a pound.
I've got a nice Amish bulk food store near enough to me, so I prefer to get my wheat flour already ground. But for a long term, emergency situation, I got wheat berries and a good Lehman's hand powered mill. In emergency situations, electricity may not be available.
I've been looking at lehmans for a handcrank mill, which do you have?
I LIVED IN PALOUSE AS A CHILD EARLY 1960'S. . . ALWAYS REMEMBER THE SURROUNDING WHEAT FIELDS!
We grow wheat so I store some to grind. Hard red winter wheat is what we grow. So “free” flour!! LOVE IT!!
How do you harvest it without a big machine? Is it possible?
@@christinechatham8849 it is a farm so harvest it with a combine.
Can I buy some from you?
I do 1/3 hard red wheat and 2/3’s hard white wheat for making my bread and I live in Idaho very near the Palouse. Been making bread for about 35-40 years.
You must be close to me, we are in the prairie south of Lewiston. Tons of wheat around here!!!!!
Thank you for the great tip
I was wondering if you could combine the ground grains! Thank you for sharing!
I do the same. Makes great tasting bread! Just the right flavor. All hard white is bland. All red is strong. I love the mix.
Love that mix, I do that also. All my bread loafs.
🙋♀️Destroyed a both a coffee grinder and a ninja this year trying to grind wheat. Unless you tried it and it worked (in which case you got lucky), then please dont tell people you can do it. I couldnt replace my ninja. Now I have a mill. I highly discourage anyone from trying to use their coffee grinder or ninja.
Congrats and good luck with your farmers market endeavor. I love making bread, so I love it when people talk about making bread. LOL I guess Im a bread nerd.
Agreed
I did the same. But the funny thing was was that it was my parents grinder. I went and tried to make them fresh bread b4 I had my hand grinder and used their blender...yup didn't work to well. Lol. Thx God my parents have a sence of humor. I tried my coffee grinder too but it got way to hot too fast and the amount of time and batch trying to grind with that thing would take all day and the time having to wait for it to cool off is really long. So ya no to coffee grinders or blenders. I know there is a blender I think called a vitamin that has a grain attachment but I don't have one so not sure if it works. But I now have my wondermill but it is handcrank so I'm trying to fig out how to power it up which seems expensive also.
@@suzz1776 - the Vitamix Blenders costs As much or More than an Electric Grain Mill. I just bought the Wondermill (319.95) waiting for my Grains to arrive...
Could you recommend a mill? I am currently using a coffee grinder. Tia
Will you do a fact sheet with what you just said? Put it on your Etsy, people will buy it, I'm sure. Thank you for considering this request.
So glad you made this video. I had been contemplating getting wheat berries and had done some homework on the differences but your description of each and what it could be used for was extremely helpful. I love the instructions you give on making things in the kitchen. Last year I made my first strawberry jam and water bath canned it myself. Something I had watched my grandmother do when I was a kid. This month there was a sale on raspberries. I got the cone and mashing maul and made relatively seedless jam. Here I am almost 72 learning something my mother didn’t even know.
I would add to also try the original wheat varieties, einkorn, spelt, kamut and faro. These wheat berries are a bit milder in taste and a little lower in protein. Personally I do not care for red or white wheat, it tends to get "grassy" over time. We prefer spelt for bread and einkorn for pie crust, muffins, biscuits etc. Just something else to try when you venture into whole grain baking.
This is cool ‼️ Where would you recommend I buy these from? Thanks for sharing this. 😊
Azure standard or breadtopia.
I bought spelt flour from the Amish in the past and it makes amazing bread!
Hard white and hard red, make a great combo for a bread loaf.
I'm not a huge bread person but I love love love my wheat berries cooked in broth and topped with roasted veggies or tossed in my homemade soup. I buy the ancient grains einkorn emmer and spelt...YUM❤
Is there any way someone could discuss other ways to use wheat berries that don’t require grinding?
I also don’t care for bread, but I love grains etc.
The middle eastern dish/salad, "Tabouli" is a great-tasting way to use cracked wheat berries.
@@jungleprepper963 Barley is not wheat but is a delicious grain. I haven't tried the quick cook. The old-fashioned barley is 3 parts water to 1 part grain. It takes a while to cook but is so worth it. Butter, salt and pepper and am sure there are many other ways to eat it.
If you process the berries by sprouting and toasting them you can make beer also
Now this is something I haven’t thought of- Beer! This might tip the scale, to do more research. Thank you for mentioning this. I had toyed with the idea of making beer.😊
This is what is meant, Give us this day our daily bread. Amen
I just grab some from a bin and grind what I need. They're all the same to us. I also grind oats, makes good mix with wheat. And flax. There are grinders on Amazon for good prices.
What grinder would you recommend? Some are only $40… is that too cheap?
I just bought a Victoria brand at mid-$50s. I’ve used those products all my life, and it’s a hand crank for grid-down….jmo
@@randimochamer6284 thanks! That’s what I’m hoping to find….
I use Wheat Montana hard Red and Hard White. I believe the protein levels are different between growers. They've said that the hard wheats, red or white are for breads, and winter wheats are stronger than spring. They told me that the soft wheat are best suited for biscuits and such. I do have some palouse soft white to use for AP flour.
So... Just watched this again for the 3rd time 😆!! And just placed an order....
Thank you for the info!
You can make great yeast bread with hard white wheat, it’s *slightly* lower in protein than hard red but it’s close! Soft, whether it’s white or red, is the really lower protein grain that you want for quick breads.
I have a grain mill for my KitchenAid but never knew what kind of berries to buy. Thanks for this.
Thank you! Very helpful!
You did an awesome job! Thank you.
Thank you for sharing Leisa!
Great info. Thanks.
Such a great tutorial. Thank you.
That was so amazingly helpful! Thank you so much 🥰👌
This was very informative thank you for doing it.
This was a great video. I am on a wait list for a grain mill so this was information that is needed as I look for berries to buy.
Omgosh … you answered so many wheat Berry questions had! Thank you Leisa 😘
SO HAPPY I stumbled on your Channel! I will be sharing a LOT❤️
I'm so glad you did this video! Very informative for us oldies and the newbies!
Very informative. Thank you!
Thank-you, I've been looking for a comparison of the wheats for a while now.
Thank you, exactly what I was looking for... Very informative.
Thank you Leisa for clarifying the differences between the types.
Great info! Thanks for sharing.
Super helpful video, in my way to start stores the right way 🥰
RECIPE: wheat porridge 😋 this will stick to your ribs folks.
Soak the desired amount of wheat kernels, or berries.
( same thing )
It will double in volume, keep the soaking water,
adding some as needed.
Both the soaking water and the cooking water will contain plenty of water soluble vitamins and minerals. Keep it and use it.
Simmer on low until kernels break wide open.
Stir now and then, to prevent burning on the bottom of the pot.
Serve hot or cold, adding anything you love. YUMMY ❤
Any kind of milk
Honey or demerara style sugar,
( the healthy kind because it still contains minerals and vitamins )
Chocolate chips, raisins, nuts,
Banana slices, or chop some dry apricots into small pieces .
Hi, how Cheney is it?
Somewhat chewy, but certainly filling, great if you are physically working hard, because it really does stick to your ribs. 🙂
@Heidi Misfeldt Is this recipe using berries 'straight from the bag', or do the berries have to be ground/milled first? Also, just soak til doubled in size, then simmer the whole thing? When do we know it is done? I nuke TV dinners....
Thank you, we were trying to figure out what type of wheat berries to buy. Husband bought me a grinder, non electric, and said now go buy berries..lol Might see you on one of our trips up north some day at the farmers market. ❤😁
That would be awesome!
Amazing video, I was just looking into wheat berries. Your video answered a lot of my questions.
Thank you’ve I’ve always been so confused as to which one to buy. You’ve explained it the best
Ty for explaining all of this, I was so confused. With your help, I've finally decided on hard white.
A very nice and comprehensive explanation!!! Thank you and I wish you well on your endeavors!!!
Sooooo helpful. Thanks! May God bless you and your home.
This was so helpful Leisa. I purchased a grinder but had no idea what kind of berries to buy. So grateful to have run across this video!! ❤️🙏❤️
Leisa, this has been such an informative video for me. I plan on getting into this more after we move to our new homestead. Thank you for explaining all this so well.
I made my first loaf of bread from wheat berries today and I won't be buying store bread from now on, dirt cheap and so much better tasting!
Awesome!
Thanks for the vid! The bread is so much more filling too when it’s made from wheat berries.
Very helpful! I always wondered about this. Last summer I bought a bucket of red and one of white. Yay!
Thank you so much for you knowledge and information shared with us.
Thank you.
This is so awesome!! I have seen a couple of things about what to buy but never a really good explanation about best types mean & what purpose. 😁
THANK YOU*** I’m thinking on getting there bread mill book too. I’m so looking forward to any tutorials if you share them. HOW FUN***👍❤️🦋
We used to drive 30 miles to get to larger stores, and there was a Montana Mills Bread store. Oh my! They ground their flour fresh and the bread was amazing - we'd be ripping apart a loaf on the way home in the front seat of the truck. I've always wanted a grain mill since tasting that! Mine is ordered, and I hope it gets here soon. Thanks for the video!
This was so interesting. You live and you learn. I will get more information and the books. Thank you.
What a great video! I had to learn most of this in my own. Thankful video like this exist now!!
This was super helpful!!!! Thank youi!!!
Thank you So Much for this video! I bought a hand grinder last month but was unsure which kind to buy of wheat berries. Now I know😁👍❤
Soft white makes a wonderful hot cereal.I have always been into the taste of grains and it is delicious delicious. I have been eating hot cereal for supper for 3 nights now and enjoying myself very much!! :)
@@maybeitsme4969
I was going to ask the same question
@@maybeitsme4969 I soak how much I'm going to use overnight which I also do with oats. Then I add a pinch of salt and bring it to a boil. Then turn the heat down and make a little space with the lid of the pan and stir every now and then. You can measure one cup of the grain to 4 cups of water and it will give you enough for 2 or 3 breakfasts. I like to have some in the fridge to heat up. :). Hope this helps! :)
Sounds good! How long do you cook it?
@@elizabethshaw734
Can you do this with hard red wheat berries?
You can get a machine that you can roll your oat groats too. Makes the best old fashioned oats. My machine attaches to my kitchen aid mixer. You can get hand crank ones also.
You're a wonderful teacher ❤️
Great job, thanks for the info
Thank you! Thank you! For all these explanations! I’ve been researching to know what berries to purchase and what each type is used for. You have helped me tremendously! Now I’m really excited! 😃
Thank you so much for this! Very informative. And perfect timing.
Thank you
Great video ‼️ Thanks for sharing.
This presentation was very helpful in understanding various wheat berries. Attention in answering questions in the comments was greatly appreciated.
Thanks for this viedo, Im just learning to use wheat berries and this presentation was so helpful.
TY so much for doing this. I've been trying to learn but gosh U knocked it out of the park for me.
I'm glad it was helpful
Awesome 👌 👏 👍 wheat berries tutorial video
Perfect timing! My mill arrived the other day. Been a bread baker for years now I’m heading for the next level of milling my own flour. Thank you! Keep the inspiration coming. This is so exciting!
You've got this!
Good review. Thank you!
Very helpful, did not realize the difference in the protein levels. Thank you.
Thank you for the great info! I have been wondering about the differences in the wheat berries!
Einkorn is pricy, but it’s the best option for gluten intolerant bellies. And it’s got a fantastic taste.
Where do you buy yours?
You should try grinding your own wheat berries (hard white or hard red) and make bread your own bread. I discovered that my wife's gut cannot tolerate overly processed and nutritionally bereft store bought flour. She is fine with my freshly milled hard white bread. Hard white wheat berries are also much more reasonably priced compared to einkorn.
Thanks so much! I am just getting into all this and I am learning so much...my only regret is that I didn't start sooner!
Me too!
Thank you so much I have been researching and reseaching on this , this was so very heplful made it so easy to understand !
You've got this!
This is very helpful. It is yet another thing I am struggling to learn. We don’t eat much bread and baked goods but they are essential, and, after all, even in the worse of times we still want a treat.
I inherited my mom's electric stone mill from 1978 with a 3/4 horsepower motor - it's a beast!! This video is awesome and inspiring - going to be making some bread soon!
I have a new Favorite channel and
So glad your channel showed up in my feed. You answered a lot of questions i had and answered some i didn't know to to ask. Building a prepper pantry and regret dragging my feet with prices skyrocketing..mills and grains up 40-60% and even unavailable lately. I'll be watching all your content and upcoming videos. I don't Facebook but happy to follow here.
This is an amazing video on learning the basics of flour. Thank you!!
Thank you
Great video, thank you.
I have the Vitamix and it has a separate container container to grind flour, etc. and it works great. Mine didn't get hot like a regular blender. I didn't have any more room for more gadgets.
Same! I have the special container and I love it
Is this a grinder attachment or just the dry ingredient container. I have the dry container
@@JustCookIt813 It's the dry container. The blade on it is for grains. However, I have used my regular container also. I even made bread with my Vitamix. My Vitamix is almost 20 years old. I did update it and bought the larger container.
@@barbaradumler6503 thanks for the info. Saw where a post said if you chill the berrues, the vitamix does not get hot, but would think you would need to warm up the flour befire using. Like you, i have too many appliances and no room for another.
I also read to chill or freeze the berries to help combat heating up in the blender.
This was a great video! Perfect explanation of the differences, and very helpful. Thank you!
You're very welcome!
Thank you for this information! So very helpful. I've ordered several varieties of wheat berries and can't wait until they arrive so I can use my mill and bake some awesome healthy breads.
You've got this!
Great info!!
I have put up Einkorn so now I think I will branch out and start stocking some of these!! Always great to have choices!! Thanks for the information Leisa!!
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing
You bet!
Oh my Goodness!!!!! I have been looking for info on this for like forever!! Cookbooks are sold out and there are virtually few videos!!! You’re a Godsend!!!! Thank You!!🌹🌹
I'm glad it was helpful
Thank you so much. Have always wanted to try but afraid of the experience. Maybe it’s time to take the plunge. Thanks Leisa.
Awesome video, THANK You!
Awesome episode! I'm one of the ones on the Facebook group that has been asking questions. I'm going to be playing this episode over and over and taking lots and lots of notes. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Same! Haha
Read the comments and replies, for additional information.
Love this
You can just boil them a bit, mix with tomatoes, parsley, kalamatas, olive oil, lemon juice, SnP, onions...delicious.
Greetings from East Texas! Thank you for the Timeliness of this video Leisa! I was just researching Mills and Wheatberries
Awesome!
What a WONDERFUL video on something that I have been prepping for but I don’t know enough about.
Thank you for enlightening the rest of us!! You have so many great ideas for the apprentice prepper.
Glad you enjoyed it!
We use hard white for our bread. Hard red and hard white mixed make a nice bread, too. We also use our wheats for hot cereal and salads as well as sprouts. Wheat is so versatile! Mixing the wheats is wonderful!
I tried a blender once it heated up so bad it was smoking thru it in the garbage after that. My Mennonite store will freshly ground flour for you which I do now. But I think in the long run a hand mill will be in my kitchen. Thanks for discussing the different types.
