How To Keep Your Coffee Fresh

  • Whenever possible you should grind your coffee just before brewing.
  • Be an informed consumer; find out the date that your coffee was roasted.
  • If they don’t want to tell you that’s a bad sign.
  • It is better to buy smaller quantities of coffee and buy it more often.
  • Some specialty coffee roasters will ship straight to your door for a reasonable rate.
  • Fresh coffee should bloom (get bubbly and happy) when you pour hot water over it.
  • Very fresh, quality coffee should have just a little bit of sweetness to it.
