General + Nutrition
- What is the difference between Conventional and Organic?
- Organic products are grown using farming practices that meet the national USDA certification standards.
- How long do conventional and organic products last? All purpose and Bread flour?
- Our flours are best when fresh and used within 10-12 months of their mill date. Best stored in a cool and dry location.
- Are your whole grain flours sifted?
- Our whole grain flours are not sifted
- If the stone milling process preserves the amount of bran and germ, does this mean that all your flour has more fiber?
- Yes our stone milling process is intentionally designed to retain more of the bran and most of the germ. As a result our flour is more naturally nutritious and has higher fiber than industrial white flour.
- What is a blend of flour you would recommend for someone who focused on low glycemic intake?
- Whole grain flour has a lower glycemic index. If you are focusing on glycemic intake we recommend using a blend with 80% Whole grain and 20% T85.
- Are any of your flours gluten free?
- We currently do not offer a gluten free flour.
- What does naturally nutritious mean?
- It means there are no additives in our flour. Our milling process retains the natural nutrition that resides in the bran and germ.
- Are your flours healthier than other flours?
- Our fresh flour is naturally nutritious. Commodity white and whole wheat flours strip out the bran and germ which contain the nutrition from grains. As a result they have to use additives to supplement the nutritional values in their product. We think the nutrition that occurs naturally is better.
- Do you sell wheat berries?
- Not at this time.
- Do you sell starter?
- Not at this time.
