I believe some producers roast them first, then grind them.

I think it's a great idea. Personally, I don't do it simply because at the moment, it's too many steps for me! Call me lazy, but it's more work and planning than I'm up for right now. <br /><br />I do soak and sprout some grains to eat as is, and one of these days I'll get around to drying them, too ;) <br /><br />You can also buy dried, sprouted grains in some health food sections/stores (at a much higher price), and grind those.

If I had a better blender I would definitely use that instead (my blender is just a cheap-o one that can't be used for dry things, and a coffee grinder is a cheap option for grinding :). If you live near a co-op store you might have better luck getting GMO grains there than a regular health food store, my local co-op is fantastic for finding bulk organic grains at a decent price!

I found that it controls the flour dust better than a coffee grinder. With 3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 kids, and a husband, I need all the help I can get with the cleaning issues. The next step is finding GMO-free grains at a reasonable price to turn into flour. :)<br /><br />--LiliaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835821377773395716.post-31523750071974998282012-02-04T10:48:24.759-08:002012-02-04T10:48:24.759-08:00Eileen, I think it would be fantastic if you serve...Eileen, I think it would be fantastic if you served the crackers at your B&B - http://www.thefatewe.com/ - I think they're tasty whether or not you're gluten free :) Let me know how they turn out and if you get any feedback from your guests!Danielle @ Poor and Gluten Freehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09836360004405159423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835821377773395716.post-65453579536169903402012-02-04T08:48:15.567-08:002012-02-04T08:48:15.567-08:00Congratulations on your crackers and grinding flou...Congratulations on your crackers and grinding flour! Discovering what your body does not tolerate is the first half of the battle, then trying to live with that is the second. I will try the cracker recipe and see how it works. Maybe I will serve them in the B & B!Eileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11296751726616435231noreply@blogger.com
