I have always put mine in the refrigerator. Today, while looking at the back of the package, it says do not refrigerate or freeze - store in cool, dry, dark place.

Since I scored a Keurig I don't have to worry about that anymore.

Before that it was in one of those sealable tins.

Frim what i read in brief research, freezing is bad because everytime you take it out a slight condensation forms as it warms (however slight it may be). Moisture is death to coffe beans/grounds.

Purists will say coffee goes stale after a week at room temp and not to freeze or fridge. The most practical recommendation is freeze longterm stuff in one week "doses" and get beans not grounds.

i buy multiple bags of the brand i like, when i can find them.. i store them in the freezer until it's time for one of them to give their life.. At that time it's put in a plastic container with a screw down lid..

I leave it on the counter next to the coffee maker. We go through our coffee pretty quickly

freezer. i only make coffee on weekends b/c I usually leave the house so early I don't feel like it. I've never noticed a different or weaker taste and like my coffee strong.

At the camp we usually leave it in the freezer to save it from the rats. Dont have to taste good just needs to get the job done.

At home i keep it in an old tin can with a snap on lid in a cabinet.

I have a container with the little rubber seal and snap lock lid that I keep it in, fits one big bag in it. Keep it in a cabinet above the sink along with all the filters and sugar and whatnot. Never failed me before

Good: Holds a 12oz bag of beans (still in the bag) and the square footprint fits neatly in the pantry.

Bad: Can't find another one anywhere

Air tight container in a kitchen cabinet near the machine. I usually grind in that morning before I put it in the pot.
