First attempt at making no knead bread. The recipe was closely followed as close as possible and my first attempt was a reasonable winner. I have a flour making machine and the wheat kernels so decided to make whole wheat.

The crust is a bit hard which can be softened by about 20 seconds in the microwave. The taste and texture is more than acceptable. IMO any bread in general has to be better than the commercial types.I seldom eat commercial bread so this is a welcome improvement.

I made another loaf yesterday. It is solid whole wheat flour and is perfect. The crust is not hard. Two things I notice, don't knead, just stir the ingredients and keep the dough almost liquid, meaning sufficient water. The parchment paper prevents sticking. I followed the recipe to a T. I measure the ingredients, since I have a quality gram scale. Don't overdue the yeast. I also cut the loaf with a serrated knife. I cooked in a Dutch Oven, purchased in a goodwill.

Second batch of no knead whole wheat bread. Excellent quality total time including rising about 4 hours. Flour was ground from whole wheat grain.
