Frequently Asked Questions
WHAT’s THE SHELF LIFE?
If stored properly, whole coffee beans can last for several months, if not longer. To extend the shelf life of your beans, it is important to store them in an airtight container, away from light and heat, and in a cool, dry place. It is also a good idea to keep the beans in the whole bean form until you are ready to use them, and to grind the beans just before brewing for the best flavor and aroma.
