what is the shelf life of the coffe beans?

It depends on how you store them, and how much of a perfectionist you are. I vacuum seal them in quart mason jars as soon as I receive them, and store them in a low cool cabinet. They are fine for 6 months.

I keep mine in a air-tight container after opening. I generally use them up within a couple weeks after opening. I found these beans to be very fresh and flavorful.

All coffee beans have to be stored in an airtight container. I always use the same bag and squeeze out all the air and put a rubber band around the bag and store in an airtight container like Lock and lock. Never freeze extra coffee. The goof thing about this coffee is it is fresh roasted. Most coffees receive their bean already roasted.

No, as the title implies it is "Whole Beans" only which is what I ordered as I like the shelf life to be a little longer. Ground coffee generally has a shorter storage life as opposed to whole beans.

Hi, shelf life is typically 1 year from time of purchase (but storing in colder places will help!)Thanks,Green Bulk team

About the same as the Coffee, and others. Ours never last that long, but last we got was dated 12/2013, so it had bout nine months.

I can't speak for the shelf life, but they seriously don't last that long in our house. you will use them and go through them if made available! make kombucha with them, cookies, pasta, everything can use chia!

I would avoid any coffee that has an expiration date. ALWAYS buy your fresh roasted coffee beans with a 'Roasted on' date. Freshly roasted coffee only has a shelf life of about 3 weeks. The beans will off gas as well so the packaging needs to have a one way vent (allows off gasses to escape but prevents oxygen from entering). If you are buying your coffee with an expiration date, you are buying old stale coffee, 100% guaranteed. Do a little research.

I've read that the shelf life is at least a year, most likely up to two if it is kept well sealed and in a relatively cool area. I've been impressed witht the packaging on BulkSupplemts products; they seal well and are not prone to ripping, so you should be good to have them sealed and in a cupboard for extended periods.

They have a long exp. date on package and air-tight. I personally will not store in Freezer or Ref. only because of experience and I recently read an article that said NEVER store fresh coffee in freezer if you want to retain flavor. I am going thru about 6 per week for one person. I would just leave in the box or re-box for cabinet.

We used it right away so can't tell you about shelf life. I suggest contacting the company. Sorry.

Technically, since there are no spoiling components, it never actually goes bad. The taste can begin to decline slightly around 6 - 12 months but it's nothing noticeable. It's only slightly weaker and the aroma isn't as strong. But this is due to how the aroma is reintroduced back into the jars of instant coffee.

Richard, I don't know about a shelf life. This stuff is so good that it is never around here long enough to know. It sure is an outstanding product.

They are vacuumed sealed so just like a can of coffee the shelf life is a few years

I'm not sure. We are sailors and plan to take it with us when we move aboard our boat. It is my understanding that the shelf life is about a year. It is an excellent product.

That I can't tell you - I bought these a couple years ago - Although they worked well, not sure of the shelf life - sorry!

I got a new batch which was only a few months old and did have a five year shelf life from that date. I don't remember the exact dates and they are packed in my go bag.

About 2 years if resealed and properly stored. I keep mine in a drawer and the bag (if opened correctly) can be resealed. If you store it in sunlight, it'll go bad quickly. As well if you store it a container that lets a lot of oxygen in, it wont keep as long either. My cacao doesn't even last more than a couple of months so this isn't really a problem for me, but my husband and I drink warm cacao every morning and usually add it to our smoothies for its added nutritional content and vitamins. Its also a great source of magnesium which most diets are really lacking in. Hope I answered your question well enough. Oh and nestle's cocoa lasts about 6 months shelf life and has zero nutritional benefits. You can also use this in many, many recipes! I'm working on a cookbook series that will include how to use this, in the next few months! If you want more health fact information you can subscribe to my newsletter at www.bestfood4life.com. If you have any additional questions you'd like to ask me personally you can contact me directly there as well. Enjoy your cacao powder!!
