The choice of coffee beans depends on the individual. Today we will mainly talk about how to store coffee beans at home.

Positive practices for preserving coffee beans:

Open the package before use and use it all at once!

There is no one-size-fits-all measure to ensure that every coffee bean you buy is satisfactory, so which store shall we buy? Are the beans bought suitable for baking? How to store coffee beans after buying it home? These problems are all worthy of our attention.

First of all, we can buy coffee beans through Taobao, micro-stores, coffee shops near our home and other channels to buy our favorite type, no matter which channel you buy, we will give you some suggestions.

① tries to buy coffee beans that are roasted within two weeks

② buys the amount you can drink in two weeks at a time.

③ only buys coffee beans.

There are restrictions on the preservation of coffee beans. You must pay whatever price you use to preserve your coffee, and you will get what quality coffee you will get!

The most positive way to preserve coffee beans is to "open the package before use and use it all at once"!

Whenever consumers ask me how to preserve coffee beans, I always suggest that they seal the coffee carefully and put it in the side door of the freezer. When brewing coffee, take out the amount needed and put the remaining coffee back immediately. This practice is to use the concept of "low temperature freezing" to slow down the oxidation of coffee, which can usually more than double the shelf life of coffee. However, in the process of taking out and taking in, it is still impossible to avoid the change of temperature, so if you can, it is best to "pack" one part of the coffee in a plastic bag, then seal it with a plastic bag sealing machine and put it in the refrigerator for cryopreservation. When you use it, only one copy will be taken out and the rest will continue to be preserved. Although this takes a lot of work, it can greatly prolong the life of the coffee, but most people are scared off by this complicated procedure! However, apart from this method, I can't think of any other way to properly preserve the original flavor of coffee.

The manufacturer that uses this idea most thoroughly is Magpie Nest Company. Magpie Nest Coffee has produced a domestic Italian coffee machine called nespresso. A cup of coffee powder is hidden in an exquisite and dazzling aluminum container "aluminum bag". The colorful "aluminum bag" is cute and a bit adorable. When brewing coffee, put the "aluminum bag" into the handle, put it into the machine, press the switch, and a cup of fragrant coffee comes out quickly. I am not advertising for the magpie's nest, but this "aluminum bag" completely explains under what conditions it makes sense to talk about the preservation of coffee!

At first, when I saw this "aluminum alloy", I only thought that the packaging design was very dazzling and it was easy to draw people's attention to its appearance. Later, after careful consideration, I found that this approach was really not simple. Other manufacturers who use this concept either use paper packaging and plastic bags (such as "illy" coffee) or use "glue" (such as "Lavazza" coffee). Only Magpie Nest coffee uses "aluminum", which uses very expensive production technology. In addition to the high cost of the whole set of production equipment, "aluminum molding" plus vacuum packaging technology needs to overcome many difficulties. If it were not for this kind of big manufacturers in the world, they would not dare to adopt it (I do not know whether it is in line with the concept of environmental protection), and in my memory, Magpie Nest Coffee is instant coffee, and apart from this "aluminum" coffee, it does not produce grinding coffee, so I think Magpie Nest Coffee must have tried various packaging methods and adopted this expensive packaging when it launched this "aluminum".

The advantage of this kind of packaging is that the coffee is vacuum sealed in "aluminum". As long as it is not opened and the preservation effect is almost semi-permanent, it completely shows the positive practice of coffee preservation, and its only disadvantage may be the high price brought about by "sub-packaging". And the use of "aluminum" must be made with a special machine, which greatly increases the cost of drinking coffee, coupled with the fact that the taste of Italian coffee is not acceptable to everyone, and limited by the taste it provides, it is unable to enjoy the pleasure of cooking individual coffee.

Therefore, what way to preserve coffee beans, you must pay what price, you will get what quality of coffee! If you really ask for the quality of coffee, I can only ask you to "pack" the coffee yourself, or choose the coffee packaging with the concept of "sub-packing"! In all other ways, he is better than nothing!
