FAQs

How does the with-seeds cut differ from the seedless one?

The color value (160 ASTA), cut (8–12 mesh) and heat (below 500 SHU) are the same on both sheets. The with-seeds cut keeps the seeds, so it looks speckled.

Is this the same as chilli flakes?

No. It is made from sweet paprika, below 500 SHU. Crushed chilli is the hot equivalent.

What moisture is allowed?

12% max.

Can I mix crushed paprika and paprika powder in one order?

You can ask for both in one inquiry; quantities and loading are confirmed in the quotation.
