Effective methods of keeping coffee fresh

A good place to store coffee

Coffee should be stored in a dry, cool place and never in the refrigerator to avoid moisture absorption. Coffee beans and ground coffee can be frozen, the only thing to pay attention to is that when taking out coffee from the freezer, you need to avoid the frozen part melting and making the coffee in the bag damp. Americans think coffee is better kept in the refrigerator. However, it would not take more than a month. They take the coffee beans out of the freezer and grind them before they thaw.

Packaging for coffee storage

Tin cans can make coffee aroma stay longer. Plastic bags can also be stored, but less than tin cans. Coffee beans are sometimes sold in tin cans or plastic bags abroad. Vacuum packaging is more conducive to the storage of coffee, so that the original flavor more durable.

Once the oil-proof or tin-foil bag is opened, place the coffee beans or coffee powder in an airtight jar; the coffee powder will not mold quickly, but like the coffee beans, it will absorb the flavor in the air.

Storage of coffee beans

The beans that have not yet been roasted or fried sink better, and once the coffee beans are roasted, they slowly lose their flavor, and after two weeks the flavor is gone. So buy a small amount at a time, or buy a small amount of coffee that has been ground. If you order coffee from a specialty coffee shop, it's best to buy unground beans.

Storage of instant coffee

Instant coffee bags are a recent development of processed foods for roasted and ground coffee. Their thin aluminum material helps preserve the original aroma of coffee to the greatest extent.
