    I never use white flour. It's always whole wheat. It comes out about how you would expect it to, denser and crunchier. Something I prefer most of the time.

    Yes, on purpose too!  It's okay if you pick a recipe for whole wheat flour where someone else has already done the work figuring out how to balance the ingredients since whole wheat soaks up more liquid, but there will always be shades of "good for you" in a 1970s kind of a way.  I'm okay with that.  It makes me nostalgic for pine wall panelling and macramé hanging baskets of spider plants, lol!  I use it for pie crusts for quiches, banana bread, carrot cake or date loaf type quick breads, and molasses cookies. Oh, and I made roti for a curry last week which turned out very well.
