Picture driving home after picking up a 12oz bag from a local roaster I haven't tried before. The entire car smells gloriously of Carmel and peach. The aroma is powerful and invigorating.
Pan to Me only thinking, "damn that is some piss poor packaging"
I usually prefer to just store beans in oem bag with a good bag clip. I've tried other containers and feel like it's typically no better or worse. Going to throw a ziplock around this one.
Any other favorite storage methods?
Does Carmel smell like Clint Eastwood? I didn't notice any particularly remarkable scent, last time I was there ๐
'kay after being a touch insufferable now I feel obliged to participate in the discussion. For storage I like to partition a batch of coffee into glass tubes in individual doses, and/or in a glass jar with minimal air, and/or partitioned, double-bagged and frozen. The OEM bag often will suffice.
I think that's a wonderfully generic bag design. You're not paying for marketing when you buy beans from "COFFEE".
I use air-tight bean canisters, personally.
We use a Ball jar. We reused it from some sort of food product (honey, maybe?) but you can buy them empty. I believe it's the 32oz. size https://www.ballmasonjars.com/products/jars/canning-jars/ball%C2%AE-mason-jars-lids%2C-regular-mouth/SAP_62000.html.
We use a plastic lid because the metal lids are janky.
A 12oz bag of coffee empties perfectly into it. It's clear so it's very easy to see how much you have left.
