Home Ground Flour: A FAST Way To Sift Out Bran To Make Home-Ground WHITE Flour Without Hand Sifting!

I finally figured out how to make all purpose flour at home from your own home ground flour (whole grain) without tedious sifting for hours and hours. Timestamp for those of you in a hurry - the magic starts at 4:19.

Seriously this is the best thing I have come up with all year. I don’t even know if this would be better called “how to bolt flour” because bolting flour was traditionally what it was called when you sift out bran from whole grain flour. As opposed to sifting flour for a particular recipe which is NOT what we’re doing here.

And because power tools are fun 🙂 This DIY flour sifter is the most efficient way I’ve come up with to sift large amounts of home-ground flour to make “white” flour that is suitable for finer things like white breads, cookies, etc. It’s a massive time saver for anyone who bakes large amounts of breads or anything with their own homeground flour but would like a “white” flour without spending hours and hours sifting

Here’s what I used (Aff. links when applicable). Note - the sifters can vary in price but at the time I made this video you can pick them both up together for under $40:

60 mesh sifter - https://amzn.to/30GSrFF
60 mesh sifter I’d buy in hindsight (larger) - https://amzn.to/3cOJNHu

For blades - any old reciprocating saw blades will do - this is a good use for old dull blades.

My name is Bethany, and I'm a single mom & homesteader here in Washington State. I'm building everything by hand (including my house) and while it is a slow process, it is definitely a labor of love.

I adore permaculture, black coffee, reading books, am semi-addicted to homesteading Youtube videos, and my day is generally not complete if I don’t spend time in my garden.

If that sounds right up your alley, make sure to subscribe and click the bell so you won’t miss any of my awesome videos!

I started my channel because I found there were many women who doubted their ability to follow their dream of homesteading without a partner. I am here to tell you that YES you can do it! It is my sincerest wish that I could help some of you make that dream a reality.
