How do you store your grounded coffee? - SLRPNK

Hiya, just quickly wondering how people store their coffee? Mine is in a tin box I got second hand, cos I thought it looked nice. Any rules regarding storing grounded coffee? I don’t store much at the time, it’s just if I grind a little too much and what not. I’m assuming the general thumb rule for this is to store it in a closed container. Feel free to share pics of your containers 🌻

I’m no coffee connoisseur- but wouldn’t storing the coffee beans in ground form be more prone to static build up, humidity, etc etc than just storing the beans in whole form?

I’d have to assume the effect is not that significant, given pre-ground coffee seems to be the most popular form statista.com/…/coffee-grinding-method-among-us-pa…

Oxidation (and other processes) do affect coffee flavor, and grinding it up increases surface area / exposure to oxygen, speeding that up. Putting it in the fridge seems to also worsen flavor, but the freezer seems to be pretty reliable. Here’s a nice video discussing this by a weird coffee person (James Hoffmann): [www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uT5_IWWb00](Should you freeze coffee beans?)

Also, KGLW, nice!

Woo! I picture James’ disapproving stare at me everytime I let the kettle go to full boil, or accidentally oversteep ಠ_ಠ
