How do you coffee aficionados store your coffee*?
I've been hooked on the Black Rifle, but don't like to pay full price, so I usually order from them (whole beans) when they have a 20% off sale, but then I end up with like three months worth of coffee. I've read the pluses and minuses on freezing and have, for myself, come to the conclusion that it's fine to freeze whole bean unopened airtight bags. Once you take them out of the freezer though, they stay out and get used up. Or if you have a Costco sized bag, the "experts" say it's fine to open it and distribute the beans into smaller vacuum sealed bags and immediately stick those in the freezer. Freezing ground coffee, and freezing and refreezing beans seems to be what to avoid.
Once my beans are out, they go into one of those coffee storage cans that I got from Black Rifle that has the plunger lid to remove air. It usually takes me 7-10 days to go through a 12oz bag that's been dumped in the can.
I also, once a week or so, make cowboy coffee just for fun. Since it involves boiling the coffee, I usually just use Folgers or whatever and don't worry about storage other than room temp, opaque, and airtight.
Just curious if anyone else "overbuys" and how you store your stuff.
