Hiya, just quickly wondering how people store their coffee? Mine is in a tin box I got second hand, cos I thought it looked nice. Any rules regarding storing grounded coffee? I don't store much at the time, it's just if I grind a little too much and what not. I'm assuming the general thumb rule for this is to store it in a closed container.

Feel free to share pics of your containers ๐ŸŒป

Edit: My grinder doesn't allow for selective ground mode, but a new grinder is defo on the list! Seems like keeping them as beans for as long as possible - is the way.

I measure the beans before I grind. No way I'm storing ground coffee.

Which is probably the best way for sure, keeps it fresh! ๐ŸŒป

Same I grind fresh every time I make coffee and I generally only have one bag open at a time so my beans stay fresh.
