How to Store Your Coffee?

Want your coffee to stay fresh and full of flavour?
Here’s how to store it properly:

Skip the Fridge

Don’t put your coffee in the fridge. Every time you take it out, moisture forms on the beans or grounds. This moisture pulls out the flavour, leaving your coffee dull and bland over time.
If you want to keep your coffee tasting great, keep it out of the fridge!

Seal It Up

Use an airtight container to store your coffee. Our new coffee tins, now available in our store, are perfect for keeping your beans fresh. They provide a stylish and effective way to seal in flavour. Keep the tin in a cool, dark spot like a pantry or cupboard, away from sunlight. Air, light, and moisture are your coffee’s worst enemies—they make it go stale faster. By sealing it tightly in one of our coffee tins, you can enjoy your coffee's rich flavour for longer.

What About the Freezer?

Freezing coffee isn’t the best option, but if you must, stick with whole beans. Keep them in an airtight container in the freezer. When it’s time to use them, let the beans reach room temperature before opening the container. This helps prevent moisture from forming and protects the flavour.

A Few Extra Tips

Buy Small Amounts: Purchase coffee in small batches to ensure it stays fresh. This way, you can enjoy your coffee at its best.

Grind Before Brewing: Grind your beans just before brewing for maximum flavour. Freshly ground coffee offers a richer taste compared to pre-ground options.
