  • Re: new build in werribee

    Will do.

    Have ordered a 25kg bag of the the Molino Caputo tipo 00 pizzeria flour. Pick up tomorrow. Might try it Saturday night.

    Here's the tip you cannot buy from the importer but give them a call they will give you a reseller in your area or someone that will be able to order. TI believe they distribute throughout Australia.

    The bag I ordered will cost me $50 $2 per kg sounds pretty good got it from Lakes Fresh Food Market in Taylors Lakes which is west of Melbourne.

    Finally a source in Australia for the flour they rave over OS. Basile started importing it only a few months back.

    Here is the link - enjoy finally a source.

      I have been using the Molino flour for 8 months and find it works for me with the FB by weight recipe. Recently I deviated from the trusty recipe and used half and half with some stone ground organic wholemeal and found that it lifted it to another level.

      All about messing around and tweaking it once you have something that is a good standard to work from. I have found that it is better when put in individual containers in the fridge for a few days after the first rise.

      I have been getting my flour from W when it comes on special. Managed to get a fair supply at the end of an Aldi promotion for .98c a kg. That is now long gone but it stores well in the freezer.

          Good tip oasiscdm

          I still have have about 10 Kg of wallaby flour. But need to try the imported stuff. Have to see how good Molino Caputo is.

          Cooked about 25 Pizza last weekend for my work mates. The Wallaby was good. It will be interested to see how everyone goes with imports...

          Cheers

            might get some Molino wholemeal as well and try that. Haven't had much success with wholemeal. Never seen Molino in W. Was it 25kg blue bag?

              have been using wallaby just finished it last weekend. That's why I have been tying to find reasonably priced pizzeria. The guy just happened to mention bisile imports, I think by mistake more than anything. From there it was easy called them Better be what it is cracked up to be brindle 25kg is a lot of flour if it isn't.

                The wholemeal I used was not Molino, it was stoneground organic wholemeal from a local bulk ingredient retailer. It was expensive but I am sure that there is plenty of cheaper wholemeal around. The other thing I found was that it took more water with the wholemeal to get the same consistency so it is probably about 67/68% hydration.

                  For those in Melbourne there are 6 bags left at lakes fresh food market @ $ 50 each. Bargain.

                  Ok. Storage of said flour any idea?

                    Normally you don't use 100% wholemeal, it reduces the rising try 50/50 plain and wholemeal and you get a lighter dough.

                            Place it in a sealed container first. Not had a problem with condensation.

                                My neighbor put me on to keeping the flour in the fridge. It seems to work as the temp is to low for anything to go through its life cycle.
                                I'm used to buying 10 kg wallaby flour, and storing it in 500 gm lots in polytene bags. Be warned they they allow the flour to slowly slip through the fridge racks of the beer fridge, very interesting to try to extract! So make sure you put them on a tray. Much better if you could buy plastic bags instead of polytene ones , better still one of those fancy Vac Packers would be great.... I've put the hints out every Xmas for one of those
