It is not necessary to freeze dry goods such as coffee beans after vacuum sealing.

It depends on the climate conditions where you live. I'm in Hawaii so I do keep my beans in the fridge or freezer except for what I'll use in a few days. The notion that it is bad to do so doesn't hold up in climates like mine where the heat and humidity will damage the flavor more than keeping beans in the fridge. I will keep my beans out from December to April when the humidity is less and it's not as hot as the summer.

Not without making a mess (at least in my experience). But there is a get-around to this problem. Put your liquids in a regular freezer bag/container and freeze it. Then take the frozen liquid out of the regular freezer container and you can vacuum seal the frozen solid liquids with no problem (and no mess).

The bags I received on December 10, 2012 are marked "use by 16 July 2013". My own experience is that I've kept some of these factory sealed bag bean and ground coffees in the freezer for almost 2 years and didn't have any noticeable effect on the flavor etc. Hope this helps.

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.

I always store mine in a hermetic jar and don't notice a significant deterioration in the quality by the time I get to the last beans. Americas Test Kitchen has recommendations regarding storing coffee so whatever works best for you.

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!

I put 30ml regular ground coffee in pod. Clean all grounds from sealing area . Good Luck !!

yes i have sealed spices and stored them in the freezer or refrigerator. you have to check the bags after a couple of days as sometimes they get a pinhole in them and lose their seal. but overall they work great

Amazon has a lot of solutions -- I use these resealable vaccum-sealed containers for both ground coffee and whole coffee beans Tightvac Coffeevac 1 Pound Vacuum Sealed Storage Container, Solid Black Body/Cap

I seal mine up in an airtight container as soon as I open it. A five pound bag last me a month and the last grind is as fresh as the first.

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.

I have my current bean for about 6 months, I have read they will last for at least 1 year. They need to be stored in ziploc bags or an airtight container, I triple bagged my beans.

Is the air tight plastic cup mentioned included with the coffee as I live in a warm and humid climate and am worried about freshness.I currently keep the pods from open bags in an air tight bag in the freezer.

I put the coffee in an air tight container to keep it fresh. Or if in Florida with humid weather in a zipLock bag in freezer

you can but i wouldn't advise it.Liquids in vacuum boils at lower temperatures, which mean for example that if you are sealing a steak it will loose juices and flavor during the process.Also the vacmaster use a dry piston motor which lifespan can be affected if to many evaporation occurs within the chamber.It is always better to lower the temperature of anything that is going to be vacuum sealed.

No need to freeze, I have K-cups that are 5 months old that I am just now using. still the best coffee ever! not stale. Fresher than the bag coffee that I keep in the freezer. so just keep them where ever. mine have been sitting in the spare room since Nov. I may move them out of there if it gets too hot this summer.
