Have you ever heard the saying "first come, first ground"? The more well-known saying “first come, first served”, has its origins in the Middle Ages. The farmers in a given area would bring the grain they collected to the nearest mill to have it ground into wheat. The mills worked on a "first come, first served" basis, in this case, "first come, first ground".

Thankfully, you no longer have to wait in line at the mill to get your flour, you can comfortably order from KoRo and have our high quality wheat flour in your hands pretty soon! Our type 550 flour, which is coarser than the 405 version, is a real fibre and protein source. It has the perfect texture for baking and you can use it for anything from pizza and breads to home-made pasta!

Flour types and their differences

405, 550, 812, 1050, 1800. Seems like just some random numbers. Maybe it's the secret code to KoRo's vault, which contains the recipe for our famous date and hazelnut spread? These numbers actually represent the different types of flour. We'll explain: when wheat grains are ground, they initially produce a light, powdery flour. Each type of flour will differ in terms of consistency and colour. Lower types (such as 550) are finely ground, which makes them very lightly coloured, while higher type flours, such as type 1800, are coarser and darker. The numbers (405, 550 and so on) refer to the mineral contents in 100 g of each type of flour, meaning that the coarser the flour (higher number), the higher the mineral content.

Using flour correctly

Different flours should be used for different purposes: our type 550 wheat flour has a higher grain percentage than type 405, which makes it a bit coarser. This flour can be used as all purpose flour for pizza dough, pasta and cakes. Do you want to try something different? Discover our flour alternatives! We have many of those, including everything from linseed flour, coconut flour and chickpea flour all the way to sweet potato flour!

If you have any questions about it, we recommend that you seek advise from your veterinarian!
