Hi, thank you for this post! I have just started milling my own flour (using the Kitchenaid attachment) and my loaves are consistently coming out flat and dense, with no oven spring. I've heard some people say that you should sift your flour to remove some of the bran because it can cut the gluten strands, but I can't find reliable information one way or the other about that. Can you share some insight?
