Flour should be kept tightly covered in a dry place such as a cupboard. Keeping it on the counter is ok as long as it's in a covered container. In some parts of the country people have trouble with pest infestation so it's usually recommended that they keep flour, tightly covered, in the refrigerator. That would probably apply even more if flour isn't used frequently.

∙ 7y ago- Flour can be stored in its original packaging or in an air tight container on a shelf or in a cupboard in a cool part of your kitchen.
- Never mix old flour with new flour.
- Wholemeal flour keeps less well than white flour as the oils from the germ and bran can become rancid with age. Wholemeal flour will normally keep for about three months while white flour will be OK to use for six to nine months.

Does std flour have baking flour?
You are asking if STANDARD FLOUR HAS BAKING FLOUR? Standard flour from the grocer, or if you are lucky to have stone ground flour, is baking flour. The question is: What are you baking. So if you are baking bread that needs a rising factor, you need to add some gluten into it. Bread flours are higher in gluten content. I buy the generic flour and add my own additional gluten so I don't have that many varieties of flour in the freezer. I have whole wheat, multi-grains, etc which I use for bread making as well.
