Caputo Manitoba Oro Tipo 0 Flour

$32.99
Description

Manitoba Oro is the strongest flour in the Caputo range: 370 to 390 W, 14.5% protein.

At that level the gluten network holds water other flours cannot. The dough stays elastic and under tension at 75% hydration, where a standard Tipo 00 would start to give up. That makes it interesting for very open crusts, and just as useful for rustic loaves, generous focaccia and enriched doughs.

It asks for 24 to 72 hours and a bit of technique. Strength means it resists the stretch until it has had enough rest.

It is also an excellent blending flour when a dough needs backbone. Available in 1 kg and 5 kg.

How to work with it

Where to start

  • Hydration of 70 to 80%, that is where it gives its best
  • Ferment 24 to 72 hours, most of it in the fridge
  • Stretch out the rests between handling, it relaxes slowly

Worth knowing

  • A dough that refuses to open needs rest, not strength
  • In a blend, 20 to 30% Manitoba is enough to back up a weaker flour
  • It takes more water than the others, adjust before deciding the dough is dry

For a straightforward Neapolitan, the Pizzeria and the Cuoco are simpler choices.

FAQ

Tipo 0 or Tipo 00, what changes?

The number describes the grind, not the strength. Tipo 0 is slightly less refined and keeps more of the grain, which reads as a fuller flavour in the finished crust.

Is it a good flour to start with?

Not really. It needs longer rests and a practised hand. For a first dough, Classica or Pizzeria will get you a better pizza faster.

Can I use it on its own for pizza?

Yes, for very wet, long fermented doughs. For a standard Neapolitan most people blend it with a softer Tipo 00 rather than using it neat.
