What is a Vedik Chakki?

The term "chakki" refers to the traditional stone mill used for grinding grains. "Vedik" or "Vedic" points to a process rooted in ancient wisdom, emphasizing natural, slow, and mindful preparation. Unlike modern steel roller mills that operate at extremely high speeds (often over 900 RPM), our Vedik Chakki mills use natural stones that rotate at a very low speed, typically between 50 and 60 RPM. This crucial difference is what makes our flour a "cold-pressed" product, similar to our cold-pressed oils.

The Problem with High-Speed Grinding

• Nutrient Loss: High temperatures destroy essential nutrients like B-complex vitamins, proteins, and delicate fibers. Heat also degrades the natural oils in the wheat germ, vital for health and flavor.
• Oxidation: The rapid, high-heat process exposes flour to excessive air, leading to oxidation. This reduces freshness and flavor quickly.
• Chemical Contamination: Some modern mills use emery stones (aluminum oxide), which can mix with flour over time, posing a health risk.

Our Modern Vedik Chakki: The Best of Both Worlds

• Low RPM, Low Heat: Our stone mills operate at a low RPM, preventing heat buildup and preserving vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber. This is the secret to truly nutritious flour.
• Purity of Ingredients: Natural stones avoid contamination. The process is fully mechanical and chemical-free, ensuring 100% pure, wholesome flour.
• Enhanced Flavor and Texture: Low-heat grinding preserves natural oils, giving a rich aroma and authentic taste. Flour has a fine texture for soft rotis while retaining bran and fiber for digestive health.
• Freshness and Quality: Grains are ground in small batches and packed in eco-friendly packaging to ensure maximum freshness and flavor.
