HOW DO I STORE MY COFFEE ?

Coffee beans or ground coffee is best stored in an air tight container away from direct sunlight. Do not store in a fridge as the coffee absorbs other flavours from within the fridge. You can freeze coffee in an air tight container.

Whole Coffee Beans – Sealed in heat sealed gas valve bags it will stay fresh for circa 12 months

Ground Coffee – We suggest once ground and providing it is packed in a heat sealed gas valve bag, it will remian fresh if unopened for 3 – 6 months, then if stored immediately in a freezer it can extend freshness to circa  6 -12 months.

HOW DO I STORE MY TEA ?

Loose leaf tea is generally very forgiving and as long as it is kept dry and out of direct sunlight, it will last for 2 years or more. There is also no benefit in purchasing numerous smaller bags of the same tea in the belief it will remain fresher than a larger sized bag.
