ROASTING IS SUPERIOR TO OTHER
METHODS OF HEAT PROCESSED GRAIN
~ IT’S ECONOMICAL - The cost to operate a flame roaster is lower than other
types of processing equipment. This makes roasting gram a more efficient method.
- IT PURIFIES - Only a flame roaster can effectively remove molds and reduce
toxins to tolerant levels As the individual gram rotates through the open flame, the
mold dust around it is destroyed.
~ IT’S UNIFORM - Having the gram pass through the open flame and properly
steeped, gives it a uniform treatment
- IT’S PROFITABLE - Custom roasting on your farm
‘Gives you the ability to feed your own gram, not someone elses
* Eliminates trucking expenses
*No mill charges shrinkage, storage and handling
* When gram needs to be purchased, you can have it roasted on your farm and
know how if is processed
