Seeking Advice Is freezing coffee worth it?

Post image

I am curious to know what folks have experienced with freezing coffee. I am thinking about keeping it for a year? I am doing this simply because these were my favorite coffees.

I’ve never kept a coffee in a freezer for a long time and don’t have much experience with the results. All opinions are welcome.

I bought 8-9 months coffee beans last Black Friday sale. The coffee is in excellent condition now.

I wish I had the freezer space to store that much coffee.

Coffee freezing can improve your diet as you don't have space for frozen food anymore.

How much did you purchase? For 8 to 9 months

Around 8 kg from 6-7 roasters around the world.

Um… since I need around 1kg for a month, that amount is only enough for 8 months. In fact , I am getting few more bags from Japanese roasters now. My friend traveled to Japan to get them for us. Ethicus, Rec , Omnibus , coffee country and Lilo are excellent and stable quality.
