Dried grain/meal is extremely vulnerable to pests, even “airtight” storage containers won't protect the contents from insect eggs already in the grains. For most people who use the product within a few weeks of purchase, this is not noticeable, but when stored for many months, meal moths and similar critters can make your grain or meal pretty nauseating to look at if nothing else...

The heating process kills the eggs.

The heating process kills the eggs.

That must be why the bulk grains we used to get back on the farm lasted for months. They were dried using a hot air drying process.

Is it possible to heat the flour then vaccuum pack it instead of canning it?
