I think I’ve seen a source named in the ‘Wheat Belly’ book or in the associated blog. Dr. Davis implied that although the modern proteins weren’t present in the ancient wheats that there might be the same underlying problem with them. It might be worth a try though. I’ve thought about doing the same thing. We’re going to grow rice and millet this year.
Keep us posted on your progres. I’m interested in how you do with this little project.
Will do.
We’ve been growing a fair amount of sorghum grain for the table and have a variety we like from J.L. Hudson seedsman. Fantastic pancakes. He sold it two or three years back and I haven’t seen it since. Large, white grains and massive, drooping heads. The stalks go into silage with corn field leftovers and sunflowers. The chickens love it.
I’m tinkering with the idea of building a small scale thresher, too. Various designs I’ve looked at leave something to be desired and I would like a small scale grain processing set-up in the barn for family and critter feed.
