The Coffee

Storing your beans

Your newly roasted batch of 5 Senses coffee will retain its freshness and flavour longer if you follow these hints:

Coffee’s worst enemy is air. Store it in the smallest container possible with as little space as practical between the lid of the container and the coffee. Purchase smaller amounts more frequently, rather than storing a large amount for extended periods of time. Ordering online can save a lot of grief. Simply order here and your coffee will be freshly roasted and speedily dispatched to your door. All you need to do is enjoy it fully when it arrives.

Purchase whole beans, not ground beans, and grind at home. Ground beans deteriorate more quickly due to the greater surface area exposed to the air. While 5 Senses still supplies ground coffee if required, we strongly recommend purchasing whole beans to increase the length of time they remain fresh. Only grind the volume of beans you require for the coffee as you drink it. This will ensure that each cup is a great cup.

Freeze it if you like, but only once. Thawing the coffee causes condensation and returning your coffee to the freezer will accelerate its deterioration. We recommend that you only remove the exact amount required. Don’t transfer the coffee from one container to another. This exposes the coffee to more air. And we want you to enjoy your freshly roasted beans in premuim condition. Have a great brew!
