Kölln Organic Delicate Multigrain Flakes

Oats are not just a grain – for us at Kölln they are a real passion! For over 200 years we have relied on its valuable properties and made it the focus of our products.

Oats: The local superfood

Did you know? In 2017, oats were named medicinal plant of the year in Germany. No wonder, because as a wholegrain product it supports balanced blood sugar and cholesterol levels – and all naturally. A real superfood that fits into every healthy lifestyle.

To ensure that our oat products are always of the best quality, we use a mixture of German, Scandinavian and regional oats. Oats find optimal conditions, especially in Finland and Sweden: mild temperatures, long summer days and nutrient-rich soils ensure large, light and aromatic oat kernels – the perfect basis for our Kölln products.

Rye is a genuine ancient grain and, along with wheat, is one of the most important staple foods. It has been cultivated in Central Europe for over 2,500 years – the Germanic peoples and Celts already used it for bread. No wonder, because rye gives baked goods its typical spicy, slightly bitter taste and ensures a strong, aromatic crust.

The all-rounder among grains! Wheat is not only one of the oldest but also one of the most versatile grains in the world. It found its way to Europe around 7,000 years ago - today it is hard to imagine our diet without it. Whether as flour, semolina, flakes or even as wheat beer – this sweet grass can do it all.

With its high gluten content, wheat ensures the perfect consistency in bread and pasta. No wonder it is considered the bread grain. You can find it in various forms in our products: as a crunchy wheat flake in the Kölln Kernige Multigrain Flakes or as an ingredient in the crunchy pieces of our crunchy mueslis. And the best part? Our organic wheat comes from 100% German organic farming, while the conventional wheat for our crispy pieces comes exclusively from Northern Germany.

Spelled - also known as spelled or ancient grain - belongs to the wheat family and is a close relative of today's common wheat. It is one of the oldest types of grain and is often referred to as an ancient grain. Unlike wheat, spelled is less demanding, more stable and more resistant to weather fluctuations. That's why it is particularly popular in the south of Germany.

But spelled has a little something extra: as a spelled grain, its grain is surrounded by a solid shell. Before it can become flour or flakes, it must first be removed - a bit like a natural protective shield.

Kölln relies on 100% organic spelled from German cultivation - for example in the Kölln Tender Multigrain Flakes. This means you get real ancient grain of the best quality on your spoon.

Did you know that barley is one of the oldest grains in the world? It was cultivated 15,000 years ago in the Middle East and the Balkans - and to this day it is a real power grain! Along with wheat, it is one of the most important grains and is now grown throughout Europe and Asia.

Not all barley is the same: there are two-row and multi-row varieties. Spring barley is particularly well-known because it develops a full, starchy grain at each starting point. It is precisely these properties that make it the ideal brewing barley for beer. But it's not just brewers who love barley - it's also found in barley, flour and our Kölln products.

Kölln relies on 100% German organic spelled

In our Kölln organic products we use barley from German organic farming. It is processed particularly finely in Kölln melting flakes 5-grain:

• Contains high-quality wholemeal barley flour
• Is processed into extremely delicate, easily soluble flakes
• Ideal for porridge meals in infancy

Barley delivers a natural mildness and creaminess that is perfect for delicate porridges and nutritious meals.

Whether as flakes, flour or malt – barley is full of tradition and taste. Try it out and discover the versatile grains in Kölln organic products!
