How long will the beans last in the vacuum-packed bag?

I opened mine right away, so I'm not sure, but after I opened them, they were starting to dry out, so I put the opened bag into a jar. That was a couple months ago, and they are still fine. If they start to mold, let them dry out a little to store them longer, put them in some sugar, where they will dry and flavor the sugar, or freeze them.

I opened the bag about six months ago, then put it in a ziploc bag and kept it in the crisper in the fridge. They are still perfectly fine!

I'm not sure, but it's at least three months. That's how long each bag lasts for me, and it keeps that long.

I use 300 cc in these bags, but I vacuum seal the bags before storage. I've opened packages 5 to 8 years later and the contents were fresh and flavorful after cooking.

I had opened a bag of this and used a small portion. I stored the remainder in a double zip lock bag. It lasted the for the 3 weeks it sat before I finished it. As for how long over all I can not give you a definitive answer on that part of your question. Make sure to keep it dry and I would think you would be ok.

I use a bit less than 1/2 cup freshly ground beans. I dilute 1:1 after 12 to 24 hours.

I am not an expert, but I freeze the bag and take out and fill a shaker so it lasts longer! Hope this helps.

After the bag is opened, the coffee bean freshness is not impacted, by storage in or out of a bag. For cosmetic reasons, I leave my beans in the bag. This prevents coffee bean crums and bean oil from dirtying the Coffevac. If the coffee bag is unopened, multipe barriers are better for freshness.

Definitely! I grind one bean in with my whole bean coffee each morning and the bag lasts me for about ten to twelve months and is just as good as when I opened it. I've never noticed any rancidity. You may want to keep the bag in the freezer to extend it's use further. Hope this helps:)

No, you don't want to vacuum pack the seeds. We package them so that they are ready to store either long or short term. Seeds do need some air in order to be viable for long term storage so you can either store them in the laminated foil bag we supply or you can remove them and store the individual bags in glass jars with reseal-able lids. Just follow the directions in our downloadable PDF Planting, Sprouting and Storing Guide and you'll be fine. Thanks for the question.

I'm pretty sure that is just for the pic. I bought the 22lb bag a couple months ago and they are great! I recommend using a vacuum bag sealer and then throwing them in the fridge to keep em good. As a whole, they are great. Every so often I get one that is dried out, but I don't believe hat has anything to do with expiration. When I run out I will buy more

As long as the sealed bags are refrigerated, the food should stay fresh 3-5 times longer than non-vacuum packaged foods. Vacuum packaging is not a substitute for refrigeration or freezing. Any perishable foods that require refrigeration must still be refrigerated or frozen after vacuum packaging.

I got about 22 pounds of rice per bag in 5-gallon buckets. Maybe a little less with beans, since they leave more air space. If you remove most of the excess air before you seal it, the O2 absorber will leave a nice, oxygen-free partial vacuum.

The last time I bought a pack of these was a little more than a year ago while I was in the US and now I am back in Turkey. In case the company is still packing the same kind and/or quality of those olives, then I would say that an opened bag. when divided into several fridge bags or containers, should easily last for around a month. In our case, we- with my spouse- ate them all within a couple of weeks. For an unopened bag, I would think, it should be fine for another month but not much beyond that. Olives being kept in the refridgerator produces a whitish membrane (especially the green and/or pinkish ones) after 1.5-2 months, and that should go away when you wash them for a while under warm tap water. If I am a first time buyer of these olives, I would ideally buy a pack of them and if all is well order the next close to first bag's being finished. Bottomline, those olives (if they are still the same) will please you qualitywise. Cheers,

I have not a "shelf life test". I grind and use immediately. That said, on occasion, I'm not always exact when it comes to grinding the right the amount of beans for the amount of coffee whether for French Press or espresso. In that case, I typically use the leftover amount the next day. Good luck!

About 6-9 inches. I took a 5th of vodka and cut the beans up into 1 1/2 inch pieces and they are soaking in the bottle as I write this note. I will leave them in the bottle for 6 months.

Not that I know of. I simply cut off the top, then pour beans into a large jar that seals when closed. If the jar does not hold the full amount in the bag, I role the top of bag down, tightly, and store the bag inside a zip lock bag. It is for sure that these coffee bags do not have a good open-close method!
