if you grind the beans fresh yourself
I don't get buying better roasted coffee already ground. Coffee starts losing flavor immediately after roasting- within two weeks a huge amount deteriorates. Grinding accelerates this because of greater exposure to air.
Try these basic tips-
1. Get some of the freshest roasted coffee you can find. Big diff from fresh, as in days, to weeks, to months old.
2. Store with as little exposure to air as possible. If it takes you a while to do a pound, keep what you don't use in a week in the freezer. (Must be toatlly sealed).
3. Grind what only what you need per brew.
I'm gonna get on here sometime and expound more on beans n brew. I got some resume witt it.

If any of you loyal Community drinkers have never tried River Road, do your self a favor and compare. It is much less bitter. This is a small family owned business that had the balls to go head up against one of the area's most favorite brand of anything in Community Coffee. To me, its like drinking "Small Batch" Coffee.
FWIW, I have been as loyal to Community as anyone and I think River Roads brand blows em away...............
