Moores Flour Mill

Looking down one of the four isles at Moores where my lovely wife stands.
Another isle at Moores flour mill.
I made a trip to our local flour mill that is very well hidden in our small town. It has been in business though for a pretty long time and has a very loyal following, plus their products are carried in many local grocery stores. Above you can see a few quick snaps we took while grabbing a few items we needed since we have gotten on a make our own bread kick.
They do grind and back all of their flours and most of their other items they offer. From cornmeal, to semolina, and assorted oats. They are also fully stocked with every starch one could think of, a variety of dried pasta, a few in house mixes (pancake, etc.), every kind of grain and dried bean one could want, plus a pretty fine spice area. The staff is super friendly and honestly if they were not a tad bit busy I would of asked if I could go into the massive backroom to get some more photos for all of you that are interested.
When we left to go to Moores flour mill we had a list that included the following: White bread flour, whole wheat bread flour, active dry yeast, and some rye flour. Well we picked up a 10 pound sack of the white and whole wheat flour (they go from 10lb to like 50lb plus). We also picked up a sack of active dry yeast, must be at very least 2 possibly almost 3 cups worth. Unfortunately they were out of the rye flour for the day (said check back tomorrow), but they did have pumpernickel which basically is the less but just less ground – we opted to wait for now. While checking over the spice area we did notice that they had some great deals and we ended up getting a large bottle of sweet Spanish paprika and some more dried marjoram (we just used the rest earlier this week). Then to wrap it up we also grabbed two locally produced soda’s for the ride back home.
Julia got herself a vanilla cream soda and I got myself a root beer. Must say that even though I drank it, and they were only .99 cents each – I just did not care that much for the flavor. Not sure if it was the sarsaparilla, the vanilla, the birch, the wintergreen, the sugar, or perhaps even the water. Whatever it was the spice blend just was not what I was looking for. I did not get a chance to taste the Vanilla cream soda, so that too will remain a mystery. I suppose to my next visit there I will grab a few soda’s to talk about on here.
Oh ya check this out:
- 10 pounds whole wheat bread flour.
- 10 pounds white bread flour.
- Huge sack of instant yeast, must weigh at least a pound.
- Large jar of sweet Spanish paprika.
- Standard sized spice jar of Marjoram.
- 2 Locally produced bottles of soda.
- Total cost – under $20.00 *we did bring in and use our own grocery bags, we always try to.
