Large White Organic with Fresh Yeast in Breakmaker

Written by Ian Rhodes

8g fresh yeast, 500g Shipton Mill Strong Bread Flour, 1½ tsp sugar, 1¼ salt, 2tbsp oil, 330ml water. I put the fresh yeast into the bread pan first, breaking into little pieces. The flour, sugar and salt (dry ingredients first). Then the oil and water. I used olive oil for convenience. The programme is set for 4 hours and defaults to a medium crust loaf. It came out well risen with a good crunchy crust, great texture. It seemed to rise a lot more with the fresh as opposed to dried yeast.

Centuries of milling

A mill was first recorded on this site in the Domesday book of 1086. We follow in the footsteps of generations of Millers. There is a sense of place and continuity at the heart of what we do.

Traditional Grains

We select our grains by their excellence, not the average. It is up to us to then capture and distil these flavours from the grain into flour through our precise and expert milling processes.

Protecting the environment

Shipton Mill has been guided from day one by the mission to leave the earth in a better place than we inherit it. Being a champion for regenerative organic agriculture is one strand of this.
