For the best flavor:
Store coffee in an airtight, opaque container away from light, heat, and moisture.
- Whole beans stay fresh for 2-4 weeks when stored properly.
- Ground coffee should be used within 2 weeks for peak flavor.
- If buying in bulk, divide into smaller portions to prevent frequent exposure to air and maintain freshness.
Freezing Instructions
If long-term storage is needed, coffee beans can be frozen, but proper precautions must be taken:
- Use an airtight, opaque container or vacuum-sealed bag to prevent moisture exposure.
- Portion beans before freezing to avoid repeated thawing and refreezing.
- Allow beans to come to room temperature before grinding to prevent condensation.
- Freeze only once for best quality.
