Cryopreservation is in the hope of making coffee dormant.

The three conditions of "flavor", "nutrient" and "safety" should be maintained as slowly as possible before freezing.

Flavor and nutrition of these two factors, because it is easy to understand, so this article will not discuss any more. In terms of safety, because coffee powder itself is vulnerable to mycotoxins.

The government has also carefully and comprehensively tested the content of ochratoxin in coffee on the market because ochratoxin is classified as a Class 2A carcinogen.

The safety of caffeine is really something we should pay attention to!

Coffee beans, coffee powder in the end how to freeze?

If there is an opaque aluminum foil package, put the whole package in the freezer or in the jar together, take out the amount of powder you need to make coffee each time, and before the coffee is ready.

Before there is "sweating" (that is, condensation), just put it back to freeze as soon as possible. the coffee powder taken out can be put at room temperature and wait for the temperature to return, and then you can start grinding the beans or straightening them.

It's going to be brewed.

Coffee beans are easily infected by mycotoxins, so the preservation conditions of coffee beans are very important. I don't want you to taste delicious and healthy coffee.

Drink toxins that are not good for your health, but counterproductive drink bad and harmful coffee!

Coffee powder ice refrigerator won't go bad? NO!

The question that most people wonder about is: "do you want the coffee powder in the refrigerator or not?" Especially in humid and muggy places, many people tend to put food in the refrigerator to keep out moisture and heat. In fact, not every kind of food is suitable for storage in the refrigerator, especially coffee powder!

When we take the drink out of the refrigerator and leave it at room temperature, we can see that condensed water droplets appear outside the container. Similarly, if the coffee powder that has been opened is stored in the refrigerator, because of its natural "hygroscopic", it will not only absorb the odor of the nearby refrigerator and make the aroma of the coffee powder disappear, but also take it in and out of the refrigerator repeatedly, resulting in fine water droplets on the coffee powder and a substantial increase in humidity. On the contrary, it encourages the growth of mold.

But without the refrigerator, won't it go bad when the weather is muggy? Indeed, the high temperature environment will deteriorate the oil quality on the coffee powder and make the coffee powder lose its fresh aroma and flavor, so heat-dissipating appliances such as sunlight, refrigerators or ovens, and cardboard boxes are not good places to store coffee powder. only in a dry and cool place can you maintain good coffee powder quality.

If you can't put it in the freezer, can you put it in the freezer?

If you can ensure that the container of coffee beans is completely sealed and unopened, then it is possible to put it in a freezer. But don't forget that every time you open the refrigerator, the coffee powder will be exposed to the light, and it is also one of the enemies of the coffee powder. So the best advice is that if you want to keep the coffee powder for a long time and won't use it within 10 to 14 days, you can store it in the freezer.

If you need to use coffee powder after two weeks, remember to put the remaining coffee powder back in the freezer before condensation (de-icing) occurs to reduce the likelihood of deterioration.
