In our house, we generally go for variety in our coffee beans. That means when we are finishing one bag, we’re going to open a different bag with totally different beans inside.

What do you do if there aren’t enough old beans to make a full serving of coffee?

It may be heresey, but I mix the final old beans with a few beans from the new bag and call it my “bonus blend”.

    I stop overthinking my coffee and make a cup with mixed grounds.

        Yeah, it’s definitely ok to pour out your coffee if it doesn’t taste good, it’s also fine to drink a mediocre cup.

        Never had that happen. Every time good beans of the nearly finished bag mixed with good beans of a new bag results in a surprisingly excellent cup.

        It’d have to be a really really bad espresso to pour it out. There’s no way a filter brew of blended beans could suck so much.
