Keep coffee beans or other oxygen-sensitive foods (like loose leaf teas, brown sugar or spices) fresher with this lo-fi storage container. Gail shows us how it works and discusses how much the different sizes can hold, volume-wise.

  • Should I place the black handle in the closed position or leave it open so the beans can off gas?

  • @k1kg0n Your choice, really; if the beans are super fresh, I'd leave it open for a bit. - Kat

  • A must have. I need to get one of these asap. Thanks for posting this video. Happy drinking. ;->

  • @TheBoomernut You're welcome!! :) - Kat

  • does it have a one way valve on the lid? cause you could suck the last of the air out with a vacuum cleaner over the top hole?

  • @HomeDistiller It does have a one way valve and you can leave it open or close it depending on if you need to outgas. Not sure about using a vacuum to remove even more air, though...- Kat

  • I appreciate your honesty Kat. :) I did buy 4 however. 1 64oz and 3 32oz. For best results I did read that it's best to vacuum seal the beans in many small mason jars (your daily portion) and freeze. Will use them for other less "valuable" foods after I finish the 2 lbs worth of beans. Goes fast!! :)

  • @AGC828 We use them in the store to keep the demo beans fresh after we have opened a bag, so these do get regular use by us. - Kat

  • @AGC828 The beans will outgas CO2 from their roast -- most of it is released within the first 72 hours, but they will be releasing some for awhile after that. These definitely keep the beans fresher, but a lot of folks vacuum pack their beans that they're not using with good results. - Kat

  • @AGC828 We don't recommend either, we review them and let you make the decision :) - Kat
