Baking Bread Question: Help?

Posted by Ribster, February 27, 2009

I don't have a bread machine anymore. Last one broke. I've gone way too long without some good homemade loaves. Have decided to just break down and make some white yeast bread from scratch.

In preparation I've bought some yeast and a 5 lb bag of King Arthur Bread Flour. Then went out to the King Arthur website for a good recipe.

Most of their recipes call for King Arthur All Purpose Flour instead of KAF Bread Flour. Can I adequately substitute what I've got without creating any problems? Seems the only difference between the two products is the amount of protein. Bread Flour has 12..x % while All Purpose has 11.x %.

Thanks
