Despite my appreciation for whole grain (or high extraction almost whole grain), sometimes you really just want some fine white flour. I previously purchased a #50 sifter that I thought would get me close, but it was still only getting me to around a ~75% extraction. The resulting flour was producing more of a whole wheat than white bread. After some research, I realized that I needed to step-up my sifting game. So here it is, an Advantech #120 stainless steel scientific grade sieve. This gets flour particles down to 125 microns (which I will refer to as super fine).

The results are impressive, the picture below is about 100 grams of Turkey Red that had already been through my #50 sifter. It definitely takes some work to get the flour through the mesh and found that rubbing the flour over the mesh by hand was helpful (I read that this is also good method for retaining some of the oils in the white flour).

The flour is light and powdery, but still retains some of the rich flavor of the Turkey Red grain, although not as much as the whole grain flour or high extraction of course.  The test will be to make a quick bread and see how it holds up (flavor-wise).
