Thank you for your video.
You could skip the freezing because the Oxygen Absorbers will make the environment impossible for bugs to live in.
I picked up a straight Iron for hair at the thrift store for $5 and it's the rig for sealing Mylar, IMHO.
A 10kg (22lbs) bag of flour last this family unity about two months when we're baking bread. We seem to be having a break from that at the moment.
We rotate about four to six bags of flour and I'm down to two at the moment.
I just packed away 100kg of flour in Mylar and I believe it's good for at least ten years. So I'm just going to keep buying fresh while I can and keep the stash stashed.
I expect if I ever need to get into it, my consumption may well have changed a little because I have almost a ton of whole Wheat that I could Mill and mix fifty/fifty with the white flour and make it last a little longer.
I do have buckets full of products that will not be harmed by freezing and it never gets too warm where they are stashed BUT! There's always the threat of rodents. We live above a Harbor with a Fish Plant, … it's a constant thing here.
I have Bait stations, traps, and leave an access to easy food for them so they don't bother with the buckets, and it works, so far anyway.
I really stay on top of things like rodents.
Keep up the great work and good luck.
Maybe I missed it, but did you use oxygenabsorbers?
I store flour with bay leaves
Do you have this in written form, Please?
From 2 1/2 to 4 1/2 gallon buckets can be had for free at grocery store bakeries. At least they are free at my store but some might charge $1.00 and they all have lids.
I just put the bag of flour (after it's been frozen for 3 days then thawed) into a mylar bag that will fit it but I usually only get 5 pound bags so it's easier to fit into a gallon size mylar bag.
WHAT I WOULDN’T GIVE FOR ALL-PURPOSE EINKORN FLOUR. Can not get that in Alberta anymore…
Thank you for them information. Haven’t been getting notification on your videos. Went back and checked it see if I was still subscribed. I was, I’ve got a lot of new videos to watch. Thank you for being a great teacher!😊Regina
Why don't you buy the eincorn berries and then grind it when you need it?
Thank you for your instructions on storing flour … not sure if I missed it but how long will the flour last when stored?
