(And Why Your Kitchen Deserves a Flour Mill)

If your flour could talk, here’s what it would scream from the bag…

“Stop bleaching me!” “I was born full of nutrients, and now I’m EMPTY!” “I had a bran! I had a germ! I had a PURPOSE!”

Dramatic? Maybe. But honestly, not that far from the truth.

In today’s ultra-processed world, most of us don’t realize how much goodness is lost before flour even makes it to our kitchen shelves. That neat, white powder in your pantry? It’s been ground, stripped, bleached, and possibly crying for help.

The Flour Crime Scene: Who Killed the Nutrients?

Let’s break it down, detective-style.

Victim: Whole grain wheat
Motive: Longer shelf life and “whiter” flour
Weapon: High-speed roller mills, heat, chemicals
Outcome: A nutrient-deficient powder that looks clean but has little to offer your body

It’s like buying a sports car with no engine—shiny, but no power.

Now imagine a world where you could rescue the grain and grind your own flour right at home—full of vitamins, fiber, healthy oils, and delicious flavor.

Sounds revolutionary? Nope. It’s just old school done right.

That’s where Saskia’s traditional emery stone mills come in. These machines are built to respect the grain, not destroy it.
