Joe's recipe is similar but his specifies all purpose flour and takes quite a bit longer to complete.

Bread flour results in a more substantial and tastier bread, at least to my taste buds, than all purpose flour breads. The half bread flour and half whole wheat flour combination make for a really tasty bread, and I'm eager to get on with a whole wheat only version as soon as the half and half loaf is gone.

Next, after the whole wheat version, are going to be variations adding oats and various seeds. Might even get to something similar to my favorite bread from my regular bakery.
