Coffee beans lose their best flavour once they're ground, but whole beans fade too if you don't store them well. <\/span>Oxygen, light, heat and moisture are the real enemies in any kitchen.<\/p>

Keep beans in a dark, airtight container away from the stove, and only buy what you'll drink in two to three weeks. Fresh beats a bargain that's gone flat by the time you open it.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A dark, airtight tin or jar does the job best. Clear glass jars look lovely on the counter, but light breaks down the oils that give coffee its aroma, so keep them somewhere shaded.<\/p>

Skip the fridge for your everyday bag. It's full of moisture and smells from everything else inside, and condensation forms every time you take the beans out to use them.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

If you've bought more beans than you'll get through in a month, freezing works, just portion them into small sealed bags first. Take out one bag at a time and let it warm up before opening, so you're not letting damp kitchen air in with every scoop.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Whichever way you store your beans, the real trick is buying little and often. We roast in small batches and bag it the same week, so if you keep topping up every couple of weeks, you'll always be drinking coffee close to its best.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
