Hello, I am totally new to wheat and milling.  I have a mill that was given to me last year as a gift...one of the nicer hand crank types.

Today I purchased 2- 25lb bags of Wheat Montana (so excited to see at Walmart!!)...I got one bag of Bronze Chief and one Prairie Gold.  I want to go back and get the Red Spring wheat...I regret not picking up one of each.

Anyway, how should I store this stuff?  How long is it good for unopened, and once I open a bag, do I need to transfer to big containers, or vaccuum seal (buy deep freeze, seal and store)...or maybe just vaccuum seal and store with my other bulk stuff?  Is it going to break out with a bunch of weaves any second?

Like I said, I am totally new to this, but enjoy food, thus all food must be from scratch. 

Also, which of the Wheat Montana is the best? There are several to pick from....and which is best for what?

Thanks,

Stephanie
