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 😝

    '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”.
