I have dozens of carob trees here, but I do not know how the carob flour is made. Is it from the seed only, or is the whole bean mashed?
On the moment I only use it for animal feeding.

Oracle, use carob beans for flavoring, drinks, and numerous food goods. The seeds are removed from the bean, then it is dried and ground. Here is more information on the process:

The pods are sun-dried and the seeds removed. The pulp of the pods is ground into carob powder, also known as carob flour. Carob syrup is made by dissolving the powder in water and boiling it until it is the consistency of money.
