I know the best way to preserve flour is to preserve the wheat berries and grind them into flour as needed.
But I'd like to store flour as well. I know it won't be a super long-term storage, but I think there are ways to extend the life of flour beyond the "best by" date on the bag.
Can you all please tell me how you store your flour for such purposes? I get so confused about whether or not to use an oxygen absorber - not supposed to with whole wheat flour, but what about white bread flour?
I'd really love to know the methods that people here use. Thank you!
