INSIDE OUR MILLING PLANT

our work:

The crop is pre-cleaned of impurities and foreign parts soon after the threshing, before entering the silos or before being stored in big bags, by using the vibro-sieve machine

In addition to the silos provided with refrigeration system, we can store the product in big bags and dedicate separate handling to each batch to ensure traceability of the supply chain, from the raw material to the finished product.

In this stage the dressed grains, such as farro, are stripped of their outer husk by passing through the specific machine called “dehuller”. Farro, unlike wheat, does not lose its outer hull during threshing and requires this cleaning process, after which we will get the nude caryopsis.

Through pearling, the caryopsis of our grains is partially stripped of the outer, more superficial cruscal layer; it retains much of its fiber but becomes more versatile in cooking, absorbing water more easily and reducing cooking time.

From the silos, the product in the wild passes through machineries such as: destoner, densiometric table, alveolate cylinder, cleaning tower, optical sorter, metal detector, which detect and separate seeds and foreign bodies, too small or damaged caryopsis, select each caryopsis according to shape, weight, and colour. This process results in a selected, clean, ready-to-process product.

In our stone milling plant, grains and legumes are milled in their entirety, at low temperatures, to preserve the nutrients of the raw product. We deploy innovation alongside tradition: to ensure maximum quality and purity to our flours, we carry out a final passage of our flours in plansichter and entoleter.

We offer various packaging solutions, based on customers’ needs: Modified Atmosphere Packaging, in polythene paper or transparent film from 250g to 5 kg, or vacuum packaging, in paper bags from 5 to 25 kg, in totes or silo truck. To keep the product stable at best conditions, we carry out treatments with inert gases. We also offer a reserved storage service to guarantee traceability, personalized packaging and private label.
