How long does it stay fresh?

I emptied this bag in 5 installments, each 4-5 days apart, and kept it tightly sealed in between. It stayed fresh

Well, all I can say Susanne is this, we have used it for couple of years and found self life to be great, there may indeed be a shelf life on the packet you buy, but we purchased 2 x 2 lb bags in October and they lasted through until today, the last remaining bag still fresh...I have not used the decaf brand only full strength, I imagine they would be same. Hope this helps you, we love this coffee. We keep it sealed in its own bag, outside of the refrigerator, and grind as we use it. Always great.

We buy the Kick Ass Dark but I assume the beans are about the same. It takes us about 3 weeks to use an entire bag making one pot of coffee a day. We just keep the beans we are using in a metal tin and what doesn't fit in the tin we keep in the bag folded over with a clip in the cabinet. I can say we have never had a batch that isn't fresh.

I keep mine in the fridge after opening and only grind right before using. The bag lasts me slightly less than a month, so I never have any freshness issues.

I also purchased two three pound, battery operated vacuum containers and my entire bag is fresh until gone.

I bought ours at the beginning of December, and it's still tastes fresh to all of us. We kept it out on the shelf for about 2 1/2 weeks at first then in the freezer after that. No problems whatsoever.

In my experience, as long as it stays in cool and dry place. It can stay good for a year or more

I used it regularly so used it up within a month - expiration not an issue for me. But kept it in the fridge to keep it fresh.

I don't know for certain. I do know that as long as I properly reseal the package it has stayed fresh for as long as I have had it. I generally make the smoothies once or twice a week for my husband and I, and it stays fresh right to the end. Sorry I can't be more specific.

It seems to be fresh at least for the two months it takes me to go through it. Just tape the bag up and keep in fridge.

It states it stays fresh up to 2 weeks. The longest mine has lasted has only been 1.5 weeks and it was as wonderful at the end as it was at the beginning!

DEF has a shelf life that averages from 1-2 years when stored properly (40-80 degrees optimum) It can expire quicker if not stored properly & ultimately throw "poor DEF quality" codes on your DIC. The container should have a batch date on the box/container, you can base how fresh it is on how well you store it. For example: if you store it in your laundry room closet and temps in your home are typical: 2 years without it going bad. If you leave it outside: 4-8 months. If you store it in your garage depending on the temps that fluctuate: 12-16 months.

I haven't owned it that long, about 6 months. But before purchasing, I researched it and most say it has a shelf life of about 10 years if stored properly. Don't break the seal and keep in a dark place, fairly cool and a pretty steady temperature. I repackaged mine in mylar bags with oxygen absorbers which greatly increases shelf life for most dried products. Hope this helps.

I usually put in fridge if using within 2-3 days. Otherwise I freeze, usually I use that within a couple of weeks but I am sure it stays good longer in feezer

I don't have the package anymore, but I imagine. I have had mine longer than 18 months, and it's still fresh. I transferred it into a glass mason jar, and keep it in a dark cupboard.

I just checked. Nowhere on either the box or on the individual cans does it have any kind of a date. No "Use by" or other freshness dates. As long as it is unopened and sealed in the can, it is safe to assume it will last indefinitely (or at least many years) like any other canned goods. After you open it perhaps like paint it might dry out over a period of time but you can check it monthly if you have to.

I know that this product has stabilizers and preservatives added to ensure long life usage. www.fote.com is the website of the "Fruit of the Earth" manufacuurer. (I do not see an expiration date on my product just numbers on the bottom.) With a similar product, the life of the product exceeded 2 years. So, it should stay fresh for a long time. I hope that my information helps you.

Well, I have it in its original bag and then in a canister with a really nice seal, I am drinking one cup a day, and it is still fresh and tasty...it has been about 4 months!

I would imagine you should start to use it up soon after opening to retain the freshness but there isn't a whole lot of product so it does not takes years to do this! (It will be gone within a few months of use if used regularly.)

I have had my one bottle over 6 months. I believe as long as you keep it sanitary by using fresh q tips to stir it and to apply than it will keep fresh until it is gone.

I have stored it for a few months at a time. Especially, if you don't open the bag, it will stay fresh much longer. It should have an expiration date. It has always tasted fresh to me.

After you open the container keep it in the fridge. If it is kept cold, clean and protected (sealed) it may last 6 to 8 months.Jose San Honorio
