Mulino CaputoSpeciale
Speciale is a weak type 0: 11% protein, W 210 to 230, P/L 0.45 to 0.55. At that strength it is a short-process flour. Push it into a 48 hour ferment and there is simply not enough gluten to carry the schedule, whatever the name suggests. Caputo publishes no positioning statement for it, so treat any claim you read about what Speciale is "for" as somebody else's inference. It comes in 25 kg sacks only, with no retail or 5 kg format, and no absorption figure is published.
