Everything You Need to Know About Storing Coffee
Having reached the level of coffee snob some years ago, I don’t think I’m quite to the level of coffee geek yet, but I continue to work on it. That’s how much I love really good coffee!
As you may recall from previous posts I’ve been a home roaster for many years now. While my family and I seriously enjoy a good cup of coffee, the real reason I took up this hobby in the first place was not to achieve quality. It was to save money. Excellent quality, gourmet-level coffee is not inexpensive.
The day I spent $19.95 for 12 ounces of Costa Rican, La Minita Tarrazu roasted coffee beans—with absolutely no indication on the packaging for when this coffee was roasted—was the day I said this is crazy. There has to be a better way.
