I'm investigating growing Einkorn seed this summer, and I'm curious if the all crop can harvest this ancient wheat without too much trouble. It's a very high wheat and small seed with a husk. So I don't know if the all crop combines can Dehusk also? Or just thresh the grain. I'm open to any advice on this! Kicking tires right now, but for sure will be growing Einkorn and trying up to 1 or 2 acres of it.

I don't know for sure but I would think that Einkorn would be like other wheats, when the kernel and husk are separated from the Rachis, the husk and awn (if there is one) separates from the kernel. But then again I might be full of it.

I would think it would work fine. If the husk/hull clings tight like oats, the grain might have to be ran through a de-huller.

What use does that crop have? I suppose it would matter whether it was feed or something else to still have the "husk" on it?

My sweetie has been making the best Einkorn Wheat homemade bread you ever tasted! She just made blueberry muffins and pizza dough also with it.

The grain will be milled and used as flour for bread making.
