Essential knowledge for whole wheat bread: "Baking Principles"
In whole wheat flour production, unless you're an experienced baker, never try recipes claiming 100% water or 100% whole wheat – that's simply wasting flour. You should stick to the most stable method: maintain a moisture content of 65% and a whole wheat content of no more than 40%. Otherwise, following extreme methods with excessively high whole wheat or water content will almost certainly lead to failure.
