TIPS AND HINTS

•  If you buy large portions of beans, 

separate them into one-week portions 
and store them in airtight containers  
in the freezer. Preserve freshness by 
minimizing exposure to air, light, and 
moisture. Once beans are removed from 
the freezer, keep them in a sealed 
container at room temperature.

•  Some experts feel freezing dark-roast 

beans can cause oils to coagulate;  
others disagree. You’ll need to decide  
for yourself!
