Use your Ww and add some gluten flour, say exchange with 1/2 cup

Just use wholemeal flour, even the supermarket should have it, they certainly used to.

All the supermarkets stock wholemeal flour and add 1 tablsp of gluten flour per cup wholewheat flour. I use either Pams (PnS or NW) or Countdown own brand flours, they are much cheaper than other brands.

I use wholmeal flour to make the "No Knead" bread and have never had a fail but I do add 1 tablsp gluten flour to each cup WM flour, tip from the Daley bread book.

When you say 'gluten flour', do you mean white flour?
Thanks

And I also made no knead bread for about 25 years and used used three quarters wholemeal, and no gluten, it never failed. Breadmaking improves with practice, assuming you have a good recipe, although bread dough is very forgiving I have found. Best of luck.

Gluten flour is not the same thing as white flour, it is a powdered form of pure gluten, a very fine cream coloured flour. It gives the bread dough strength and elasticity. I used to buy it in health food shops years ago, you can probably find it at a Bin Inn or other bulk food store.
