Re: Grinding your own flour, loads of questions
Ok I have a question...I'm trying to source my wheat berries. My local food co-op has local, organic hard red wheat berries (local), but no soft wheat berries. If I got spelt or kamut instead, would it work ok for pancakes etc? What about pasta?
Also, I just came across a post in my local craigslist. There is someone advertising 50lb bags of hard red wheat berries for $12 each! I'm wonder whether they'd be safe to eat. He says they are "not treated" and "non genetically modified". He also says they're leftover from planting this fall. Does that make a difference? He says they're great for spring seedling projects or for making into flour. Would it need cleaned? $12 for 50lb seems too good to give up.
