      If you would prefer to avoid the diastatic malt that is necessary in the current Trailblazer use the Organic Artisan Expresso Bread Flour. It is the equivalent nutrition and performs very well in our loaves. I have switched to this flour because it is Organic, it performs, it is delicious and a great in so many bread recipes.

        Instead of adding the diastic malt, another flour was mentioned as an alternative.

        Which flour is that?

          Gabrielle,

          Yes, that is correct. 5g per loaf. 10g for two loaves. 🙂

            Quick question is it5 grams diastatic malt per loaf? So 10 for 2?

              Try it with a small batch.

              I also keep mine in the refrigerator and over a year. And truly haven’t had any problem, but it might be beneficial to be cautious by making a two-loaf batch and ensuring potency!

              Just my thought.

                I think I’m going to try the yeast formula to save some time and get myself through the holidays. My question is, does the yeast we get from Community loaves have an expiration date? I keep it in the freezer but I’ve had it more than a year ( and used it maybe twice). Anyway, do I need to buy more or can I use what I have?

                Thanks, Deborah

                  Hi Katherine,

                  I’m sorry I should remember this but no, is the dinner roll break down exactly like the bread? In other words the exact same steps and baking temp and time?

                    Gabrielle,

                    I’m so sorry to hear about the flour mishap. Thankfully this is an uncommon event. It would be my pleasure to help you out in a pinch. If you are close to Kirkland, you are invited to swing by and pick up a bag from the Mothership.

                    Please email me – katherine@communityloaves.org and we’ll make some lemonade.

                      I try hard not to whine or complain. I know we are All volunteers. Bit I just lost a whole 5 lb. Bag of Trailblazer. ☹️ I’m just frustrated the bag wasn’t sealed and I didn’t notice and ended up with flour all over my kitchen. Heavy sigh 😌 I just ordered more.

                            Hi there! Katherine can you please point me in the direction of the Hot Crossed Buns-from last year? I’d like to make them this year for the family. Thank you

                              Mariana,

                              Two different yeast amounts. The preferment gets a little yeast and then the larger quantity of yeast goes into the mix the next day. Look back on the first page with the ingredients you’ll see that instant yeast is called out twice. Two different sections. One for the preferment, the other for the rest of the mix.

                              Do you see it?

                              Katherine

                                In step 1 (preferment) under instructions, first bullet it says to add the yeast. In step 4 (mix by kitchen aid) under instructions, third bullet it also says to add yeast.  Which is preferable ?

                                  Thank you so much! It’s what I was thinking just couldn’t pull it together.🙄
