What are Buckwheat Hulls?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuckwheat Hulls are the outer shells of buckwheat groats (grain). They have a natural earthy smell that is subtle and not overwhelming. If you enjoy the smell of walking in the woods, you'll likely appreciate the natural scent of these hulls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuckwheat was originally grown in Asia (Japan, China, parts of Russia) and later became popular in Europe, North America, and Canada. It is mainly used in the commercial production of flour for noodles and bread products. Buckwheat groats also make a tasty porridge and oatmeal alternative when cooked in water. Since they are gluten-free, the hulls are also gluten-free, making them an excellent choice for people with allergies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 25px;\"\u003eInterestingly, buckwheat has recently gained popularity as a substitute grain for making gluten-free beer. In China, people also drink tea made from roasted buckwheat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2.) What Can You Use Buckwheat Hulls For?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe most popular use is as pillow filling\/stuffing, but people also use them to make toys, cushions, bean bags, and even mattresses. Buckwheat husks are also a popular natural and organic mulch for gardening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing them to make a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pinetales.com\/products\/buckwheat-pillow\" title=\"buckwheat hull pillow\"\u003ebuckwheat hull pillow\u003c\/a\u003e is popular because the hulls don't retain heat and are five times more breathable than most synthetic and natural fibers. Buckwheat hulls are also hypoallergenic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 25px;\"\u003eRecently, pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications for buckwheat hulls have increased due to their high levels of bioactive compounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3.) Do Buckwheat Husks Attract Bugs?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 25px;\"\u003eAs long as they are properly cleaned, bugs are not an issue. Bugs only infest material they perceive as a food source. Therefore, proper cleaning of hulls is crucial to ensure they remain bug-free. Even the smallest leftover particles of the groat itself can attract bugs. Using air-cleaning technologies and heat treatment are two processes that deliver guaranteed bug-free buckwheat husks and eliminate any living organisms (bacteria and other micro-life forms) from the hulls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e4.) How to Store Them?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is no set rule or requirement for storage. As long as the hulls are kept dry, you are all set. Moisture can create mold, and when buckwheat husks are soaked in water, they can even break down, causing the hulls to crack and become unusable as pillow stuffing. We recommend using a plastic bag or a simple bucket to store them in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"PineTales","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":29581398933574,"sku":"BW_Refill","price":22.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2473\/8384\/products\/organic-buckwheat-hulls-pillow-stuffing.jpg?v=1762457283","url":"https:\/\/www.pinetales.com\/en-eu\/products\/organic-buckwheat-hulls-refill","provider":"PineTales®","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
