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 think this is the correct answer. When I went back to drinking coffee again a few years ago I bought a cheap hand grinder from scamazon. When money was available I bought the electric grinder I have now. I still use the hand grinder when camping.

I keep my beans in the freezer. If I kept ground coffee around I'd keep it there too.

ETA: I think this is the hand grinder I have: https://www.amazon.com/PARACITY-Grinder-Stainless-Aeropress-Espresso/dp/B08QRL9Q4Q/ref=sr_1_16

I have a similar grinder, paid less than $20 for it, works great. I've been using it daily since 2019.

Unfortunately it's not on Amazon anymore. I found it on eBay, but with a single 1 star review: https://www.ebay.com/itm/124212737537
