Frequently Asked Questions

1. What’s the deal with cold-pressed flour?

Think of it as the healthier, fitter cousin of your regular store-bought atta! Cold-pressed flour is gently milled at low temperatures to keep all the nutrients—like vitamins and oils—intact. No heat damage resulting from industrial scale high-speed milling here! It’s like the traditional hand-chakki method you remember from your grandparents house, but with a modern touch.

2. Are Mill Story's cold-pressed flours more expensive than store-bought flours?

Yes, Mill Story’s cold-pressed atta may be a bit pricier than store-bought varieties, but for good reason! The cold-press process preserves nutrients and requires more effort. We ensure fair pay for farmers and workers, and our grains are stored in hermetically sealed conditions to avoid exposure. Plus, we deliver atta fresh, unlike store-bought options that may be months old. All of this ensures you’re choosing the best flour on the market!

3. What’s Mill Story all about?

At Mill Story, we’re on a mission to bring back healthy, sustainable eating. We source chemical-free grains and mill them in your city cold-pressed style to lock in nutrition and deliver fresh. No chemicals, no plastic—just fresher, better food!

4. Why does local food processing matter?

Back in the day, mills were the heartbeat of every town, supplying fresh staples like flour and oils. We’re bringing that tradition back! Local processing means more nutrients, less environmental impact, and a big boost to local communities. Plus, you know exactly what’s in your food.

5. Are Mill Story grains pesticide-free?

Absolutely! Our grains are grown using organic practices, no harmful pesticides here. We even run chemical tests to make sure what you’re eating is as clean and natural as possible.

6. Why no plastic packaging?

Because plastic is bad news! Not only can it leach harmful chemicals into your food, but it also creates litter and harms the planet. We’re all about sustainable, non-toxic packaging that’s better for you and the environment. That's why we use food-grade kraft paper sacks—no single-use plastics here! We believe packaging should be as eco-friendly as the food inside. Read about The Unpackaged Movement on our blog.
