FrontStreet Coffee's Brief Guide to Coffee Bean Storage

Will coffee beans last longer if stored in the refrigerator?

Actually, while the low temperature in the refrigerator can indeed slow down the natural deterioration of coffee and is a good storage place, the air in the refrigerator is cold and dry, which can easily evaporate the moisture within the beans, causing flavor loss. Additionally, there are too many odors in the refrigerator, so it's more appropriate to store coffee beans in vacuum-sealed containers. Therefore, under normal circumstances, we recommend storing at room temperature rather than in the refrigerator.

How to Store Coffee Beans at Room Temperature?

When storing coffee beans at room temperature, it's necessary to avoid strong light exposure as much as possible, reduce contact with oxygen, and avoid high temperatures and humidity.
