Weatherbury Flours are real food and insects find them tasty.
Although there are organic pesticides, we do not use them, either on the grains in the field or the products we mill. Therefore the flour, rolled products or berries should be stored in the refrigerator. If you will not be using immediately, keep in the freezer, especially in warm weather.
We have had reports from customers that even after two years they still work and taste great. We wouldn’t, however, recommend storing them that long.
Otherwise even if you store them in a tightly lidded bucket, you will open your bucket and find bugs slipping into what you thought was an impenetrable space. If you have been using organic flours, milled products & berries and there are no bugs, then an organic pesticide has been used.
Keep the beans in a cool, dark, dry place. Dry beans will, over time, take longer to cook (but they still have great flavor).
