About this item

The Augason Farms® Hard White Wheat Pail (40 lbs.) is a 6-gallon pail with a handle and airtight sealed lid. It is a long-lasting product that is great for both everyday use and emergency food storage.

What Is the Shelf Life of the Wheat?

The shelf life is about 30 years, but it varies and is affected by certain factors such as temperature and moisture. This long shelf life makes it a great emergency food supply. All pails come with an airtight seal and have oxygen absorbers that remove all oxygen in the pail for greater preservation over long periods of time.

How Should the Wheat Be Stored?

All wheat inside the Augason Farms Hard White Wheat Pail should be kept in a cool, dry place, ideally at temperatures between 55° and 70°F. Heat will shorten the storage life of the wheat. Make sure to keep in cooler temperatures for longer storage life. Make sure to utilize the airtight sealed lid, and keep the wheat secure when storing.

If the Pail Gets Dented, Will the Quality Suffer?

It is normal for pails to receive small dents as a part of normal wear and tear. Small indentations also can occur from air pressure changes when changing altitudes. These indentations are not an issue as long as the seal has not been broken at the bottom or top of the pail. All pails come with an airtight seal and have oxygen absorbers that remove all oxygen in the pail for greater preservation of the wheat over long periods of time. This helps preserve the wheat, but can also cause the sides of the pail to push in when the oxygen is removed.

What Can You Make with Hard White Wheat?

The Augason Hard White Wheat Pail maintains the quality of the wheat it holds. With the wheat, you can make bread, pizza crusts or French bread. It can also be used to add a nutty flavor to a variety of meals.
