I wasn't aware that it was, but I would assume it is because the particles of flour are finer and pack together tighter.

Are there more calories in white flour or wheat flour?

White flour and whole wheat flour have similar calorie counts, with both containing approximately 400-450 calories per 100 grams. However, whole wheat flour is more nutrient-dense, as it retains the bran and germ, providing more fiber, vitamins, and minerals. In terms of calories alone, the difference is minimal, but the nutritional benefits of whole wheat flour make it a healthier choice.


Why is flour dense?

Grinding a grain cause the complex geometry/texture of the large original pieces to simplify, as well as breaking up internal gaps, allowing the small particles produced to fit together far more compactly than in the original structure -- and thus the flour is dense.

What is the measure to substitute whole wheat flour for white flour?

One must expect some differences in the final product when whole wheat flour is substituted for white or all-purpose flour. A fairly safe practice is to replace no more than one-third of the flour with whole wheat flour. This ensures proper rising and a delicate crumb. As the proportion of whole wheat to white increases, the baked product will be increasingly dense with less rise and a tougher, more chewy crumb.


Is white flour less or more dense than water?

A fluid ounce of water weighs slightly more than a dry ounce (1 fluid ounce of water weighs 1.043 dry ounces). Therefore a fluid ounce of water is heavier than a dry ounce of flour (or anything else for that matter). Note that a fluid ounce of something else might NOT be heavier. A fluid ounce of lead is much heavier than a fluid ounce of feathers!


Can whole wheat pastry flour be substituted for white flour?

White flour is wheat flour. The asker may intend to ask whether whole wheat flour can be substituted for white flour. The answer is yes, but the final product will be more dense and heavy than when made with white flour. Home bakers often compromise by replacing 1/3 to 1/2 of the flour in a recipe with whole wheat flour, then use white flour for the remaining amount.
