How should my coffee be stored?

Our bags a specially designed with a one-way valve to allow the coffee to degas CO2 without allowing harmful oxygen to come back into the bag. To  keep your coffee fresh always zip the bag closed using the featured ziplock top. Store your coffee at room temperature and in a dark place. Do not store coffee in the freezer as this will cause moisture to condense on the coffee beans every time you take it in and out of the freezer, damaging the quality of the beans.

You will locate the roast date of our coffee on the upper right side of our label. Your coffee will expire 14 days after it was roasted, so we suggest ordering less more often to insure that you are only drinking the highest quality coffee. As your coffee approaches 14 days, you will notice the intensity each flavor note beginning to diminish.

What coffee/water ratio should I use?

Use 1.8 – 2.0 grams of coffee per 1 ounce of water. We suggest starting with 1.8 grams of coffee then moving toward 2.0 grams if the brew seems lacking.

How dark do you roast your coffee?

Our coffees are roasted on the lighter side to preserve many of the delicate flavor notes. If coffee is roasted too dark, the natural flavors or the coffee get baked out as the beans begin to carbonize, leaving you with a burnt/bitter chocolate flavor.
