What are the Benefits of Freshly Milled Whole Wheat?

The wheat grain kernel is protected by an outer shell keeping all of the valuable nutrients and benefits stored inside for years. But once the kernel (or wheat berry) is cracked, milled, or ground, oxidation begins to take its course. Just as an apple begins to turn brown once it is exposed to the air, so too, flour begins to oxidize when it is exposed to air.

Because of this, you should use your flour within a few days of milling or at least, refrigerate or even freeze your flour for longer storage.

Another unfortunate event that takes place once the grain is milled or cracked is the oil in the grain begins the process of turning rancid. This rancidity is what makes the bread taste bitter.
