Eureka Mills uses a grinding process to produce flour that ensures a particularly natural and healthy end product which bakers would also find more economical to use than the standard commercial alternatives.
Standard commercial flour-mills employ equipment requiring some 14 sets of steel rollers or hammers to grind the wheat. These rollers or hammers generate extremely high temperatures, inevitably damaging the wheat germ and also destroying valuable vitamins and enzymes in the process.
During the grinding process the fine, top-quality flour is continually abstracted for use in cake flour and self-raising flour. In contrast, the grinding process at Eureka Meulens utilizes only three sets of rollers, whereupon the flour finds a grinding-stone. It is a much slower and more natural process that generates relatively little heat.
