To freeze or not to freeze?

How and why someone ever suggested to freeze or refrigerate coffee is beyond me! If our freshly roasted coffee is in your fridge...go home and take it out! In our opinion, the condensation ruins the flavor and aroma, leaving you with 'flat' cup by the time you get to brew your last pot.

The best place for your opened coffee is in an airtight glass canister. You can purchase these just about anywhere- we like the glass canisters with the little snappy-thingy on the side to ensure it being air tight. If you purchase several bags, and won't get to it for a while, keep it sealed in our bags--good for 3 months.

  2. Jus say NO...to air that is.
    The very best way known to man to keep your coffee air tight and fresh is to keep your whole beans...or grounds if you must...in a food saver saver canister from FoodSaver.com
