We met this flour mill by word of mouth. Here is their testimonial after 6 months of using the Moulin Astréïa.
What was your main concern before buying an Astréïa mill?
We already had a millstone system that was no longer suitable, and we needed to both modify and modernise it. We were aware of the Astrié solution, as we had already seen 2 of their mills at a partner’s mills. We therefore thought that this system would be the most suitable for our mill. That’s when we started our search, because we weren’t looking for a traditional stone mill, but an Astrié-type mill.
Why did you choose Astréïa?
We carried out a test directly in the Astréïa workshop with a wheat mixture. The result was very convincing. Then, one of our local baker customers made his recipe and the results in terms of bread-making and taste were very good. So we placed our order following these two tests: on the flour and on the bread.
Did you hesitate to go through Astréïa?
No! We didn’t hesitate to go via Astréïa!
What difference has it made to have an Astréïa mill?
What’s changed is that we’re now able to obtain greater regularity and a high quality grind for T80 flour.
On the other hand, we took advantage of the installation of the mill to overhaul our upstream and downstream systems, which saved us a lot of time.
In the end, it was a concrete and important change, both in terms of the product offered to our customers and the material, but also in terms of our work organisation, which has been made easier thanks to the Astréïa mills.
What do you think the future holds for companies that install an Astréïa mill?
I think that these companies will be able to work with a flour that is rich in taste, but also rich in fibre. They will be better equipped to face the future and meet consumers’ needs and expectations in terms of the quality of the food they eat.
What would you say to recommend us?
Working with an Astréïa mill is a great way to make flour:
- easily
- in a single pass
- with an ingenious, easy-to-understand mill
- for consistent quality and greater regularity
- a practical, well-designed mill
- for a quality result that lives up to our expectations
