Mark Thanks Leslie,

I’ve been experimenting with organic barley flour (not malted) and it’s working fine. 1% barley flour in the formula is all it takes for me.

I do believe, though, that one can mix a small amount of not-organic-certified flour with the organic flour, and by US standards, at least, the bread can still be considered and labeled "organic" (just not "100% organic). ~L Our co-op only gets organic, unbleached (Giusto’s) flour, and we’ve run into a similar problem.

I found a big barley malting factory nearby; now I just have to find out how they distribute their goods!

Heartland Mills has one (UBAP) which I have ordered online but the shipping is very high so I wont be doing that again. I am able to buy an organic malted flour from Central Milling in my local Costco. Also, I can have a local natural foods store special order a 50-lb bag of Giusto's Golden Haven. You might call Giusto's and see who they have distributing their flour in your area.
