Frequently Asked Questions

How should I store this coffee to keep it fresh?

To keep your Grumpy Mule Grumpy Yule Organic Fairtrade Ground Coffee fresh, you'll want to protect it from the four main enemies of coffee freshness: air, moisture, heat, and light. Here are some steps to ensure your coffee stays as fresh as possible:

Use an Airtight Container: Transfer the coffee into an airtight container immediately after opening the original packaging. A mason jar, vacuum-sealed container, or a specially designed coffee storage container with a one-way valve to release CO2 (carbon dioxide) while preventing air from getting in, works well. Make sure it's clean and dry before adding the coffee.

Keep It Cool: Store the coffee in a cool place, away from direct sunlight, heat sources (like the stove), or appliances that generate heat (such as the microwave or toaster). Room temperature or slightly cooler is ideal.

Avoid Moisture: Coffee is highly sensitive to moisture. Ensure your storage container is completely dry, and keep it away from areas with high humidity, like near the sink or dishwasher.

Minimise Air Exposure: Every time you open the container, air comes in contact with the coffee, which can lead to flavour deterioration. Try to use a container with a one-way valve that allows CO2 to escape without letting air in when you seal it.

Divide into Smaller Batches: If you have a large bag of coffee, consider dividing it into smaller portions that you'll consume within a week or two. This reduces the frequency of opening and closing the main container.

Freeze If Necessary: If you won't be able to use the coffee within a couple of weeks, consider freezing it in a vacuum-sealed bag or airtight container. Freezing can help preserve freshness, but it's essential to prevent moisture and odours from the freezer from affecting the coffee. When you need to use it, take out only the portion you'll use and avoid refreezing.

Grind Just Before Brewing: If possible, grind the coffee beans just before brewing. Pre-ground coffee tends to lose its freshness faster.

Keep the Bag Sealed: If you can't transfer the coffee to an airtight container, make sure to seal the bag tightly after each use, pressing out as much air as possible.

By following these steps, you can help prolong the freshness and flavour of your Grumpy Mule coffee. Keep in mind that coffee is best enjoyed within a few weeks of roasting, so try to consume it within that timeframe for the most vibrant flavour.
