SweetGourmet Baker's Wheat Bran | Natural Foods | 2 Pounds

Recently, store sources for good quality bran have dwindled. Good quality 100% wheat bran is not easy to find on a shelf, or even here. I too make the bran muffins -- bran, fresh blueberries, coconut oil, pecans, shredded coconut, fennel, vanilla, spiced rum, cinnamon and some nutmeg, xylitol, (can use allulose but have to bake longer and at a lower temperature) plus a little baking powder. The most recent store purchases of bran (before they stopped selling) were often at least a bit rancid. This bran was absolutely fresh. This bran works perfectly in my recipe, and it has the same good taste as bran found in health food stores before 2020 or so. Many other brans have odd taste, or lack texture. Some other brans affect hydration (too much). Who knows what those products really are. I'm reluctant to give a 5 star. I'm not sensitive to gluten - so I bake bread regularly. This bran was A+ added to some Bob's Artisan flour along with a some honey and avocado oil - great chew, crumb and texture -- plus fiber! Now I can continue making the muffins that stave off hunger for hours. On road trips, I pack frozen muffins in the cooler, and then warm them in the hotel microwave - they are like fresh-baked. Oh... packaging was really good for protecting the product. I feel bad for the environment because I doubt it will truly degrade or get reused :( but the product is first-rate as a result. I hope that the maker can keep up the good quality, and stay in business as my source of a good ingredient!

SweetGourmet Baker's Wheat Bran has been a wonderful addition to my kitchen. The bran is fresh, high-quality, and versatile—perfect for adding wholesome nutrition to my baking and cooking. The bran is 100% bran, which is what I like. I don’t like to use bran products that are not 100%. I use SweetGourmet Baker's Wheat Bran to make hearty homemade bread and bran muffins, and a one-pound bag will not last long for me. So, this 2-pound package is my preference. I also appreciate its value, as the quantity lasts through numerous creative meals. The wheat bran blends beautifully into recipes. It boosts fiber and adds a rich, nutty flavor to many foods. I like this bran and have been using it for years.

Good product

Good stuff. I use a lot of bran in breadmaking. I can't say that I can really tell any difference in different brands of bran.

Update: I gave up on the company contacting me and did an experiment with the wheat bran. Repeated the experiment. I made bran muffins using this product, Swerve sweetener, and THM baking blend. Tonight my glucose readings: Before eating: 103; 1 hour after: 94; 2 hours after 99. Not only did I prove to myself that wheat bran can be used on a low carbohydrate diet, I have proven to myself that it also helps with glucose management. My wife's readings were as follows: Before eating: 92; 1 hour after: 89; 2 hours after: 84. I am not giving 5 stars because the company never cleared up the confusion of the nutritional label and I had to research it myself and I had to take a chance of using the product and causing an insulin spike. I'll be ordering again. Update: I have emailed the company but have not gotten a response. I have called the company and the phone is answered and instructions are given to leave a message, and yet, the voice mailbox is full and I am unable to leave a message and nobody actually answers the phone. The phone message instructs the listener to email [email protected]. If anybody gets a straight answer, please share! My Issue: I have given this a one star review because of the confusion of the carbohydrate to fiber ratio. I ordered this product because the label shown in the picture has a 18.5:12.5 carb to fiber ratio for a half cup serving. I get the product and it says the ratio is 68:12 carb to fiber for a 100g serving. This does not make sense. I went to the website and it is reported that a 15g serving has a 10:0 carb to fiber ratio. How does any of this make sense? And this is a no return product. I have read that wheat bran is 80% non soluble, which is what I want...I will update if I hear back from the company.

The store I used to purchase from for a dollar a pound started carrying only the fine grain wheat bran, so I started looking and came across this product. Bigger flakes better for superworms and I don’t have to buy a humongous amount as I only have one beardie. I do still bake it (in batches as needed but not sure I need to). Like the resealable bag also. I’ve purchased a few bags so far and will purchase again.

Good product that I regularly purchase

It was exactly as described.
