Yes. I have had some sucess with mill ground WW when I wanted to
remove a portion of the bran. It also made a mess because the
siev with the right mesh was very small in diameter. For a while
I had a pretty good collection of sieves that had mesh of the
wrong size.

I have had poor luck with home ground flour. with mill ground
flour you tend to have bits of bran and particles of flour. With
my home ground flour, I tend to have bits of flour with bran
firmly attached to the flour bits. When I sift my home ground
flour, it is wasteful because I have to remove too much of the
larger grains of flour to get at the bran.

Is anybody sucessfully removing a high percentage of bran from
home ground flour? I would like to know your secrets.

Regards,

Charles
