Peckham Morrisons only had 16kg bags of flour today which I couldn't carry on foot but they had these bread mixes. Gonna give it a go, anyone used them?

Yeah, I noticed that my local Morrisons had switched to 16kg bags as well - guess it may be what they get from their suppliers for in-store baking?

I've used bread mixes in the past and they're fine - they may have dough improvers added as well as flour, salt, and yeast, and the recipes on the packet tend to give a lower hydration than bread nerds would aim for.

It seems a lot of the supply issue isn't with a shortage of flour, it's an inability to get it into small bags and shipped quickly. Hence all the places selling 16kg bags.
