Good Flour for German Bread

I have spoken to many Germans in America that say that King Arthur flour is the closest to what you can find in Germany. I use it all the time and really like it!
King Arthur Unbleached White Flour 5 lb Bag	King Arthur Unbleached Bread Flour 5 lb Bag	Organic Dark Rye Flour Bob's Red Mill 2 pack of 1.6 oz. bags
King Arthur Organic Whole Wheat Flour 5 lb Bag	King Arthur Organic White Whole Wheat Flour 5 lb Bag	Rye Berries Bob's Red Mill 28 oz.

Flour from Germany I wish I could do better than this we are working on it. It is interesting that Germans and most of Europe has a number on their flour. This is the percentage of Ash content which means how much of the kernel is left in. Cake Flour would have the least and Whole Grain Flours have the most.
Weizenmehl White Flour 405 Flour that is a great household flour for baking cakes and cookies. You can use it for Broetchen, Flammenkuchen
