I found this one online about a year ago on www.waltonfeed.com and it quickly became my favorite wheat bread.
3 T. yeast and 1 t. sugar dissolved in 1 cup water
In a large bowl mix:
3/4 cup honey
3/4 cup oil
2 T. salt
3 3/4 cups hot water
5 T. lemon juice or vinegar (this softens the gluten and makes the bread softer)
6 cups whole wheat flour
Add disolved yeast to bread mixture and mix for 7-10 minutes to get the gluten working. Add gradually 6 more cups of wheat flour (You might not need all 6 cups-be careful not to add too much flour, just enough to get past the sticky point). Knead for 5 minutes or if kneading by hand 10 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes. Divide and shape into 3 loaves. Place in greased bread pans. Rise until doubled in size. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes.
