How to Store Coffee Beans
Why Proper Storage Matters
Coffee beans begin to lose flavor after roasting. Proper storage slows this process and helps preserve aroma and freshness.
Best Storage Practices
Keep beans in an airtight container.
Store in a cool, dark place.
Avoid exposure to air, heat, moisture, and light.
What to Avoid
Do not store coffee in the refrigerator.
Do not leave beans in direct sunlight.
Avoid grinding coffee until ready to brew.
Whole beans stay fresh longer than ground coffee.
