Local control and reducing food miles (and carbon emissions) go hand in hand. Fresh milling needs to be done as near to the bakery as possible. The cyclone milling system only grinds about 20 kg per hour, so the Zentrofan is perfect for small on-farm mills and community bakeries. The wheat grains are milled so finely that the resulting wholemeal flour feels as soft as white flour and is easy to bake with. It conserves all the important minerals (iron, magnesium, zinc, calcium etc), vitamins (especially the B vitamins such as folate) and phenolic compounds that are found in the outer bran layers of the grain.
