Minimum flour shelf life

Q: What is the minimum shelf life for the flour BakeryBits ships?

A: At the time of shipping, flour will have at least 3 months before its Best Before date. Note that stoneground flour only ever has a maximum of 6 months. Also note that Best Before does not necessarily mean that the flour is no good after that date: it is a legal term indicating that after this date the manufacturer (mill in this case) no longer bears responsibility for the product - it does not mean that it is not good to use (you need to check it and if in doubt, don't use it).
