Peter, I buy hard white wheat for bread baking and soft white for 
pastry.  Prairie Gold and Golden 86 are two of the best.  They are 
grown in Montana and you can get wheat berries from 
www.wheatmontana.com.  I know that they say it's their climate that 
makes it so good, so I don't know anything about Arizona other than 
it's hot and arid, right?  But I live in South Texas and can't 
imagine anything hotter than here, but it's the humidity that 
emphasizes that.  Good luck and if you do have any luck with good 
wheat that tests high in protein, let me know.  We have coops that 
buy grain all the time.  I use my home ground golden 86 or prairie 
gold exclusively.
