Caputo Classica Tipo 00 Flour

$29.99
Description

Classica is the most forgiving Tipo 00 Caputo makes.

At 220 to 240 W it rises in 4 to 6 hours at room temperature, which means dough mixed after lunch is ready for dinner. The lower strength makes it soft under the hand. It opens without a fight, even with a clumsy stretch.

That makes it the right first flour if you've never made pizza dough, and the right flour for nights when the plan changes.

It's not just for pizza. Loaves, baguettes, enriched doughs: its fine grind and moderate strength handle everyday baking too.

Push it to a 12- to 24-hour cold ferment for more flavour.

Still deciding on your first flour? Our flour guide keeps it simple.

5 kg more than you need? Our Caputo Bread Flour comes in a 1 kg bag and is an equivalent flour: same 00 type, same protein, same strength.

How to work with it

Where to start

  • 58 to 62% hydration. Its moderate strength prefers a drier dough
  • 4 to 6 hours at room temperature, or 12 to 24 hours in the fridge for more flavour
  • 250 to 280 g dough balls for a 12-inch pizza

Going into the oven

  • Stretch it gently. It's softer than Chef's (Cuoco) and tears sooner.
  • Durum semolina under the dough ball keeps it from sticking to the peel
  • 400 to 450 °C in a pizza oven, or a stone at full heat in a home oven

For a more flavourful crust without a long wait, try Pizzeria, with an 8- to 24-hour ferment.

FAQ

Classica or Pizzeria?

Classica rises in 4 to 6 hours and forgives more. Pizzeria takes 8 to 24 and gives a lighter crust. If this is your first dough, start with Classica.

Does it work in a home oven?

Yes, and it's one of its strengths. A softer dough suits a longer bake on a stone at 250 °C, where a very wet Neapolitan would struggle.

Can I bake bread with it?

Yes. Loaves, baguettes and enriched doughs all work. Prefer a smaller bag? Bread Flour is the equivalent flour, sold in 1 kg.
