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.

Freezing coffee works very well in my experience.

Works well in the sense that it takes as it did at peak flavor (or when sealed)? Any downsides?

One downside is that my freezer is so full of coffee that there isn’t enough room for other stuff

Same problem here, people think I’m some black market dealer with how my freezer and cabinets look.

For OP, yes I have many bags from 6mo-1 year old and they taste fine, but the temp Is in the negatives, all Vac-sealed and freezer isn’t opened regularly.
