      @@ThinkingandTinkering brother, you need to be on tv.
      The amount of research you put in.. really makes a man weep.
      I know, very inappropriate.
      But I would love for more people to know bout you.
      TVs are filled with filler and unwatchable junk.
      You'd not only bring life to people, who're dead from watching dumb TV. But educate and instill admiration for your efforts.

    Always fascinating stuff. I’ve often wondered how much stone ends up in the flour 🤔

    • @reeferbeleafer9912
      @reeferbeleafer9912 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      "In stone-grinding, the wheat is ground slowly between two stones. All other commercial flours, however, are ground with high-speed steel rollers. The heat generated by these steel rollers strips destroys many of the vitamins and enzymes in the wheat. The stones do not generate this heat, preserving the vitamins."
      It probably constituted a source of trace minerals for diet of old..
      Today of course, replaced by microplastics and anti-caking agents.
      So much more sophisticated !

    The age of water became the age of steam which we are still powered by, even though we have the internal combustion its still kept under control by water. And don't get me started on Hydrogen but gears are as equally as important as well 😊.
