100% Stone Ground

Let me introduce you to very important team member. Without it you wouldn’t be able to enjoy your delicious bread every week. Oh, I didn’t make a grammar mistake. In fact our crew member it’s not a real person.

It’s our  KoMo PK 1 grain mill.

It was designed in Germany and made of natural materials — solid native beech wood and corundum/ceramic burrs. It can grind grain to any desired texture from coarse to very fine flour. It’s elegant and hardworking, beautifully simple and yet strong and efficient. That’s why we can proudly write that all our breads are made of flour is fresh 100% whole wheat stone ground.

You may wonder why does it matter? What so special about stone ground flour?  Well, it is important because modern mills use serrated and flat cast iron rollers that separate the bran and germ from the endosperm. Stone-griding is an ancient method that keeps all these nutrients in the flour making it healthier. So with our small mill we can’t really produce flour un mass. We grind right before making the bread, just enough for all our bread, buns, pizza crusts and pasta. We don’t blend our wholegrain flour with any white bleached or refined commercially produced flour. We don’t add bran to enrich our flour and make it look brown.  

So when you are eating 7 Grain bread you can be sure that entire grain has been used to make it. It’s old fashioned traditional flour. The one that our grandmothers used to make their daily bread with.
