When to Freeze Coffee
How long does coffee stay fresh!? A good rule to use is two weeks!. Now, if you happen to have found a great price on bulk coffee, and you don't plan on using it within two weeks, the freezer can be an acceptable one-time shot!. What this means is that once you take it out of the freezer, it should never go back in!. The constant changes in temperature will wreak havoc on your coffee!. The frozen moisture on your coffee will melt and be absorbed into the bean!. When you put it back into the freezer, you are repeating the process!.

The goal in freezing coffee is to keep it away from moisture!. If you have a five-pound bag of coffee to store, divide it up into weekly portions!. Wrap those portions up using sealable freezer bags and plastic wrap!. I've even read you should go so far as to suck out the excess air from the freezer bag using a straw!

Remove the weekly portion when you need it, and store it in an air-tight container in a dry place like your pantry!. Do not put it back into the freezer!

When to Refrigerate Coffee
Never, unless you are conducting a science experiment on how long it takes to ruin perfectly good coffee!. The fridge is one of the absolute worst places to put coffee!.
