Even whole wheat is generally not left whole. In most or all commerical flour, the germ must be removed because it spoils quickly unless roasted, vaccum packed and refrigerated. It is worth the effort to mill your own, because the taste and richness of fresh ground whole is incomparable. (and in matza, actually delicious) If you have a Kitchen Aid, there is a mill attachment but i dont know how it is rated. Some of the Magic Mills are serious enough for most.
