How to Buy Whole Grain for Bread Making

Baking your own bread can save you money and provide you with greater nutritional value, but it can be a complicated process with many decisions for the baker. You can choose whether to mill your own grain or purchase grains ready-to-use. You can decide between brad types -- light, fluffy, dark, heavy, nutty or chewy -- and high protein or high fiber. How often you plan to bake bread also determines whether buying in bulk would be beneficial.
