Organic Adzuki Beans: Triple-cleaned and perfect for baking & cooking purposes. Adzuki beans are small, reddish-brown, and have a sweet nutty flavor. They're renowned for their nutritional qualities, and are popular in Japanese cooking for dishes including yokan, made with adzuki-bean paste.

Convenient & safe storage: Our Organic Adzuki beans come in six-gallon buckets (or pails... another word for the same container), containing 43 lbs. net weight. When you store Adzuki beans at home, they need to be protected in a couple of ways. First, they need to be protected from a variety of little critters who'd like to get to them before you do. Weevils and rodents, for example. You also need to protect your Adzuki beans from picking up excessive additional moisture, which can be drawn from the atmosphere. The buckets our Adzuki beans come in provide full protection against these storage risks. They have airtight gasket-sealed lids, Mylar liners, and oxygen absorber packets that remove the oxygen from the air in the bucket after we put the lid on. The O2 absorbers leave an atmosphere of nitrogen in the bucket, because air consists almost entirely of oxygen and nitrogen. (The oxygen absorber packets themselves are completely food-safe, being made of powdered iron and salt, which are kept separate from the product itself.) Our buckets safely lock out pests, and biological processes are put "on hold" in the Mylar protected, oxygen-free nitrogen atmosphere, so your Adzuki beans enjoy complete peace and quiet until you want to use them. Note: If you don't already have a bucket lid removal tool, they make lid removal easy (see lower section of this Web page.)

Super-Cleaned: All of our Organic Adzuki Beans are triple-cleaned to ensure purity and protect your grain mill from any foreign objects. (Adzuki beans that aren't sufficiently cleaned may contain small stones that will damage or destroy a grain mill... not to mention that you don't want such things in your food!)

Non-GMO: All of Pleasant Hill Grain's whole food products are natural (non-GMO).

Simple ordering: You pay no additional shipping beyond the cost on the Buy Buttons below. Grain is an exception to the free shipping rules, but the cost of shipping is included in the cost of each bucket of Adzuki Beans, in the tables below. Because shipping cost varies with distance, total price varies depending on where it's being shipped to. There are three tables below, each showing exactly the same products, but at somewhat different prices depending on where you want us to ship it to. Just find the table that lists your ship-to state, and use the Buy Buttons in that table to add grain to your shopping cart.

If you don't yet have a grain mill, or you want to upgrade to a modern & convenient high-speed mill, Pleasant Hill Grain offers the world's best. You can see them on our home page: Grain Mills.

One of Country Beans' best features is its FAST, fat-free and good-for-you recipes made with bean, pea and lentil flours. Most recipes are wheat-free for those allergic to gluten. A GF (gluten-free) recipe index included.

No more soaking, cooking, simmering, and mashing just to make a bean dip. Now it only takes five minutes from start to finish! AND, they're fat-free! Make up your own dry black or pinto bean dip mix and keep it on hand for hungry kids and relatives. You'll love the almost instant creamy soups, sauces and gravies made in only three minutes, using "hidden" beans, peas or lentils ground to a flour in an ordinary wheat mill. You'll find recipes like creamy "chicken" soup and gravy, creamy red lentil soup, Mexican bean gravy, and vegetable pasta sauce.

Why beans? For those just starting to incorporate high fiber foods into a normal "fast food" diet, beans are essential because they slow down the transit time of whole grains and seeds. Grains contain insoluble fibers that "go right through you" and beans contain soluble fibers that bind with other foods to keep foods in the body long enough for nutrients to be utilized. Yeast and quick breads, cakes, cookies, crackers, muffins, and chips are more nutritious when bean flours are added. You'll also find great pancakes, waffles, and yeast breads for the bread machine.

Country Beans contains nearly 400 fast, easy high fiber bean recipes for every meal of the day. This book is guaranteed to change the way you use beans. You'll start sneaking super-nutritious beans into everything you cook! By Rita Bingham. Paperback, 195 pages.

Durable, stainless steel icons of purity, Berkey purifier systems have produced safe water for millions of people around the globe for decades. Equipped with the new Black Berkey® purifying elements, Berkey® Stainless purifying systems removed pathogens at the EPA's incredibly high "Log 7" standard, meaning that no more than one contaminant molecule per ten million remains in the cleaned water.

Unprecedented purifying effectiveness: Berkey® purifiers using the Black Berkey® purification elements are proven to reduce pathogenic bacteria (including E. Coli, Klebsiella, Pseudomonas Aeruginosa, Giardia and Cryptosporidium) by 99.99999%. The Berkey Light® System has been tested with the maximum pathogenic contamination levels that can be produced in a laboratory. When contamination levels exceed one billion pathogens per liter of water (10,000 times the density of contamination used in the standard test protocol for bacteriological removal) they become too numerous to count (TNTC). Such contamination levels are referred to as "lawn growth." Under normal testing protocol, one pathogenic organism is tested at a time, each with a fresh purifying element. For this test, however, the laboratory was directed to mix together a soup of three separate pathogenic "lawn growth" cultures. Tested under this extreme contamination level, absolutely no pathogens were able to make it through the purification elements. The laboratory then incubated the water, and nothing grew. When the effluent (filtered water) was viewed under an electron microscope not even inviable (dead) microbes were detectable — nothing was present but pure H2O. Furthermore, contaminants reduced to below-detectable-limits include Trihalomethanes, Radon 222, and volatile organic compounds including Benzene, 2,4-D, Heptachlor, MTBE, Styrene, Tetrachloroethylene and Toulene, among many others.
