What is custom spice grinding?

Custom spice grinding is a service where a manufacturer mills whole spices to a buyer’s exact specification, such as particle size (mesh), moisture and texture. Grinding is controlled to limit heat, because heat drives off the volatile oils that carry aroma and flavour. The result is a uniform powder that blends evenly and behaves consistently in food production.

Which spice powders do you supply in bulk?
