Wheat
All wheat products are BioGro certified.
Wheat is one of the oldest and nowadays most important cultivated food plants. Wheat like all the seven grains is a member of the grass family. It prefers good fertility levels and sufficient moisture throughout the growing season.
Wheat is mostly used for baking bread and cakes. There are three main types of wheat – so-called biscuit wheat with a lower protein content that are ideal for cakes and pastries, Durum wheat, a very hard variety for making pasta, and hard or bread wheats with high protein levels and good baking characteristics.
Milmore Downs grows hard wheat varieties with excellent baking strength and the Biodynamic methods used enhance the quality still further. Our wholemeal flour is very finely milled in Zentrofan mills. The lighter and white wheat flours are carefully milled with a stone mill and sieved.
