FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the difference between Caputo Blue and Caputo Red? Caputo Blue is designed for a medium fermentation time and high-heat ovens, while Caputo Red (Saccorosso) has a higher strength for very long fermentation and cold-proof cycles.
Why is "00" flour important for pizza? The "00" designation refers to the finest milling grade in Italy, resulting in a powder-soft flour that creates a silkier dough and a much lighter crust than all-purpose flour.
Can I use this flour in a regular home oven? Yes, though it is optimized for high heat, it produces excellent results in home ovens at their highest settings (500°F–550°F) or in portable outdoor pizza ovens.
How much water should I use with this flour? Caputo Pizzeria Blue typically performs best at a hydration level of 60% to 65%, depending on your specific environment and equipment.
Is this flour bleached or bromated? No, Caputo flours are all-natural and unbleached, following strict Italian milling traditions with no chemical additives.
How should I store a 25 kg bag? Store in a cool, dry place. For maximum shelf life in commercial kitchens, keep the flour in a food-grade airtight bin to protect it from moisture and pests.
