If you are looking for bread flour not in Australia, I have a few listed items and a helpful buying guide here
These Australian bread flours are suitable for making sourdough bread and are grown here in Australia. Many of them have been a regular part of my kitchen for more than a decade! None of my recommendations are sponsored. I would love to sell these items to you direct, in the meantime, while I work full-time, I have sourced them from Amazon AU because they home deliver for free with Prime, or for orders over $39. You can source the same products from other suppliers however you will need to allow for their delivery fees.
BREAD FLOURS ~ suitable for sourdough
High protein Australian flours.
WHITE ~ Organic Premium Bakers Flour My go-to flour. Buttery aroma during fermentation. White, silky dough. If this is out of stock try this one by the same company 👉 Buttery, everyday sourdough. | WHITE ~ Organic Unbleached Bakers Flour Makes 10 loaves (5kg) Buttery aroma during fermentation. White, silky dough. Great on its own, or you can add Vital Wheat Gluten (3g per loaf / 8g per kilo) Buttery, everyday sourdough. | WHITE ~ Sustainable Stoneground White Flour Stoneground keeps the nutritional characteristics. Unbleached. Chemical-free. ASP Certified for sustainable grain and farming practices. Beautiful colour. |
WHITE ~ Heritage* Stoneground Heritage Flour Makes 10 loaves (5kg) Contains fine bran. See note* Listing shows the wholewheat image but you receive the 'white'. Wheat type prior 1960. Pale pink flour, deep honey-coloured bread. Exceptional with tomato, eggs and basil. 😊 | WHOLEMEAL ~ Organic* Wholewheat Bakers Flour I recommend adding Vital Wheat Gluten (16g per kilo) OR mixing with high protein white bread flour. Wholegrain and fibre are retained in milling. See note* Soft and delicate wholemeal sourdough. | WHOLEMEAL ~ Heritage* Stoneground Wholewheat Unmodified wheat type from prior1960. Contains endosperm, germ and bran. ASP Certified sustainable farming. Unbleached & chemical-free. See note* Great tasting wholemeal sourdough. |
RYE ~ Wholemeal Organic Rye Flour (5kg) Rye loaves are naturally smaller, flatter and denser due to less gluten. The dough tends to be wetter and slower to rise. Sharp, earthy flavour. I recommend mixing with white bread flour for more rise and lighter flavour. To start, try 80% white & 20% rye. Great nutrient boost for starter! Great with cream cheese and salmon. | SPELT ~ White Organic White Spelt Flour (5kg) Amazon listing shows wholemeal image. Naturally high in protein but doesn't rise as much as wheat and needs less water. Soft interior, gentle nutty flavour. See my 100% spelt recipe here. Spelt can be mixed with white bread flour for more rise. Can be used for other baking.. Makes great toast. Good with cheese. | SPELT ~ Wholemeal Organic Wholemeal Spelt (5kg) Amazon listing shows white flour image. High in protein but doesn't rise as much as wheat. Semi-dense interior and deep nutty flavour. See my 100% spelt leaves here. Spelt can be mixed with white bread flour for more rise and lighter flavour. To start, try 80% white and 20% wholemeal spelt. Like regular wholemeal but without the bitterness. |
SPELT ~ White (1kg) Vital Wheat Gluten (0.5kg) High in protein but doesn't rise as much as wheat since it has less gluten. It will give you a soft interior, gentle nutty flavour and can be mixed with wheat bread flours for more rise. This is a much smaller quantity if want to try spelt before committing to 5kg. See my 100% spelt leaves here. | SPELT ~ Wholemeal (1kg) Vital Wheat Gluten (0.5kg) This brand is lower in protein than some others and being wholemeal, it would benefit from some Vital Wheat Gluten. You can also mix with white spelt or wheat bread flour. This is a much smaller quantity if want to try spelt before committing to 5kg. See my 100% spelt leaves here. | VITAL WHEAT GLUTEN Vital Wheat Gluten (0.5kg) This little gem strengthens the gluten bonds in your sourdough improving structure and rise. Add to flours that are low in protein or sourdough breads that have a lot of add-ins like fruit, nuts, seeds, fats or teas. A little goes a long way. How to use Vital Wheat Gluten?
