First, keep in mind that the best coffee beans or grinds to buy in terms of storage quality is coffee sold in a sealed air tight bag similar to the one shown in this Ehow. - 2
Coffee loses it's freshness as it comes in contact with oxygen. When you reseal the bag, first completely flatten it from tight against the top of the beans all the way to the opening of the bag. Get as much air out as possible! Flatten it as you would if you were flattening a roll of toothpaste. - 3
Then, continuing our quest for the best brew of coffee ever :-), roll the bag down tight, real tight, until it is pressed against the coffee beans or coffee grinds (or espresso beans or espresso grinds if that was your choice) - 4
Remember, as little air as possible. Sealed down properly your bag of coffee / espresso beans or grinds will look like this. This is well sealed - 5 Next, but very important ... here's where everyone goes wrong .... Do NOT put the coffee in your refrigerator or freezer. You do NOT want to refrigerate or freeze it. Why? If your bag is not sealed tight, the cold gets on the beans and they lose freshness way faster than room temperature
- 6 Why? If your bag is not sealed tight, the cold gets on the beans and they lose freshness way faster than room temperature. If exposed your won't get the best cup of coffee ever :-)
- 7 Finally, put your bag of coffee in one of your kitchen cabinets. This will allow for optimal storage. Thanks for reading my How to Seal / Store Coffee Grinds and Beans for Best Cup Ever
