tiny bugs in my wheat
Good day, all! I have a grinder (best purchase ever!) and so I make all my own flour. After purchasing, I keep it in large sealed plastic ice cream buckets.
The last time I opened a bucket, I noticed several tiny bugs attached to the measuring cup. I washed it off, but every time I open the bucket, there are more bugs attached to the cup. They are very tiny, and nothing "flies" around when I shake the wheat, but every time the bucket sits, there are more bugs to be found.
Do I have to discard all the wheat? Do I have to wash it, then somehow dry it (how?) before grinding it? Or would one just use it as is, giving it a good shake before grinding?
