    Nothing about soap is natural or organic. It’s a 100% man made product. It does not occur in nature. Soap itself is an “unnatural chemical “ Your words are misleading. I cannot believe how you downplayed the danger of getting lye in your eyes .. it can BLIND you! You said saponification happens when you blend the lye solution with the fats, WRONG. You’re emulsifying it with the blender. Saponification happens over the next 48hrs as the lye molecules and fat molecules consume each other to create soap molecules. It is safe to use after this time. The “cure” is only to evaporate moisture left to create a hard, long lasting bar. You weren’t wearing goggles blending it! OMG that fresh soap batter has ALL un saponified lye in it at that point! It can still blind you, put your goggles back on! You are a menace to all new soap makers! @all beginner soap makers go to Soaping 101 on YT and get properly educated!

      Thank you ☺️ I’ve never heard the soothing voice compliment yet! But I’ll take it! You can go with 1/3 to 1/2. My kids like the bread to be on the sweeter side. But some people go as low as 2 Tablespoons. It’ll work in either case!

      Thank you! I buy coconut oil wherever I can get it cheaply. It doesn’t even need to be the best quality for so baking. The one I used in the video I bought at Costco. But that’s not the least expensive option, it’s what I could get quickly at the time. Usually I’ll order mine online in a 5 gallon bucket! And it lasts for years.

    Excellent video and explanation on basic bread making using fresh milled flour. Do you think this recipe would work with other fresh milled flours as well? I have Emmer, Einkorn, hard red, and spelt as well as hard white.

    • @organicdiy
      @organicdiy Před 2 měsíci

      I believe it will work for all of them really well. But try experimenting with it yourself. I’ve personally only tried the hard red and hard white. Only because I’ve never ordered Spelt or Emmer or Einkorn. My family likes the hard white better than the rest.

      @organicdiy Před 2 měsíci

      Thank you. I’m currently working out a shampoo bar recipe. I’ve wanted to make one for a long time because I use a solid shampoo bar and they can get expensive! Lye is a natural product derived from wood ash. However a properly made bar of soap has no lye in it. It’s used as a catalyst for the chemical reaction that creates saponification.

  • @WhatWeDoChannel
    @WhatWeDoChannel Před 3 měsíci

    Thanks for this! I have been baking for a long time but just recently got a bread mill. My whole grain loaves have been rather heavy! I’m thinking that perhaps fresh milled flour requires a lot more kneading than the unbleached white bread flour I’m used to. Your loaves look wonderful, soft, well risen, and a nice crumb!! When I purchased my mill I also ordered 20KG of hard red wheat, but they sent me 60KG by mistake! I have a lot of hard red to work through before I can order some hard white😢😮😅!

    • @organicdiy
      @organicdiy Před 3 měsíci

      Thank you! Yes, kneading is longer, and adding gluten, an egg and lecithin will make a noticeable difference for you! Hard red will just give you a darker loaf with a nutty flavor.

      No it’s one oven. Gas cooktop and electric oven. We bought it online from z-line. But I have a total of two different ovens. One with the cooktop, and the other one, just a separate electric oven, which is the one I actually use more often because it’s smaller.

    Also, can I use this exact same recipe for fresh milled rye?

    • @organicdiy
      @organicdiy Před 3 měsíci

      Rye is tricky. I sometimes add one cup into this recipe, and I’ve read that doing so actually prolongs the shelflife of your bread. But you can’t make 100% rye bread using this same recipe it just won’t come out the same way. Rye bread requires a completely different set of ingredients in order to work.

    • @organicdiy
      @organicdiy Před 3 měsíci

      I’ve made 100% Ryebread before, but it’s a bit complicated and requires a lot of additional ingredients. For this reason it’s not a good beginner bread to try.

  • @Leo-pv9zi
    @Leo-pv9zi Před 3 měsíci

    Great recipe! Thank you! Does this bread digest well? I wanted to bake sourdough breads, but they just dont come out right? PS: I have exact same pot like you, which you use for salt. I use for pepper..😊

    • @organicdiy
      @organicdiy Před 3 měsíci

      Hi! Digestive issues are very case specific. I’m gluten intolerant, and have been baking this bread for many years for my family but not eating it myself. I was very strict with my diet. Others I know, with this issue tolerate sourdough bread just fine. Some say that if they use an ancient heirloom grain such as Einkorn then they have no issues or sensitivity. Experimenting with what your body can tolerate is the best way.

    • @organicdiy
      @organicdiy Před 3 měsíci

      Sourdough breads are a completely different bread product that uses a very different scientific process. I can recommend the following videos that have really helped me in understanding the sourdough process: czcams.com/video/ODEIQgaft6s/video.htmlsi=JSnO2XmnVoq2oYeS czcams.com/video/evOZ3GbmmAA/video.htmlsi=Lk1a6JM4hsoEfQ6E m.czcams.com/video/-JRSF-zDgvk/video.html
