Frequently Asked Questions

  • Fresh-milled flour is milled shortly before you receive it. Unlike store-bought flour, it hasn’t been aged or refined and still contains the full grain — including the bran and germ.

  • Fresh-milled flour absorbs more water and benefits from short rest times during mixing. This is normal and expected when baking with whole grain flour.

  • Add more water, not more flour.
    Start with your usual amount of flour and adjust hydration slowly.

    Fresh-milled flour benefits from a short rest. Let the flour and water mix and sit (autolyze) for 10–20 minutes before making adjustments. The dough will continue to hydrate and soften during this time.

  • For best results, use within 30 days and store sealed in a cool, dry place.
    Refrigeration or freezing extends freshness.

    If refrigerated, it will keep for approximately 2-3 months.

    If freezing, it will keep for 6-12 months.

    It’s recommended to bring it to room temperature before using, but I have used it right from the freezer with no issues.

  • Because it hasn’t been aged or refined, fresh-milled flour retains more of the grain’s natural nutrients. We see fresh milled flour as a superfood! It has so many vitamins and minerals that are in it that are not in store-bought flour.
