Is there anything I should do differently when using freshly milled flour?

I have both hard red winter wheat and hard white wheat and I was wondering if I should treat them differently compared to premilled flour. I've read that adding malt may be helpful. I have been trying to make 100% whole wheat loaves and so far have been failing miserably, though I don't think its the fault of the flour. Thanks!
