A Baker's Guide to California Grains and Flours
As fall takes us into prime baking season, we asked our resident grain grower and miller David Kaisel of Capay Mills to share what makes California grains and flours so different and special. A member of the California Grain Campaign, Capay Mills’ artisan flours can be found at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market on Saturdays.

David created this quick “grainiac’s guide” to get you started baking with locally grown and milled flours, which are more sustainable, nutritious, and flavorful
