This stoneground whole baker’s flour is made by Wholegrain Milling Co. in Gunnedah, NSW, using time-honoured stone milling techniques that gently grind the entire grain—bran, germ, and endosperm—into a soft, wholemeal flour with a naturally light brown colour and full-bodied wheat flavour.
The flour is milled from certified organic Australian wheat, grown by farmers committed to sustainable agriculture and chemical-free farming. Unlike sifted flours, this one retains all the fibre and nutrients of the whole grain, making it a nourishing choice for bakers who want flavour, performance, and nutrition in one.
It’s suitable for a wide range of baking—from hearty sourdoughs and sandwich loaves to rustic rolls, flatbreads, and enriched doughs. Expect great fermentation behaviour, rich colour, and a satisfying wheat flavour in every bake.
Why we love it:
-
100% stoneground from whole certified organic wheat
-
Wholemeal flour—contains all parts of the grain
-
High in dietary fibre

About Stone Milling:
We go into a bit about milling in our blog post, here. But to summarise, stone milling is a slow, traditional method that avoids high temperatures and friction, preserving the wheat’s natural oils, enzymes, and nutrients. It results in a flour with deeper flavour and superior nutritional value, particularly in wholegrain applications.
About the Mill:
