Once I open it, how long will they stay fresh? This is a good deal, but I'm only by myself..so it could take like a year to finish 5bls

Unroll bag and just cut one corner with scissors to form a mouth. Pour about 1 pound at a time into an airtight container, leaving the rest in the bag. Fold mouth part in, and duct tape shut. That's how I've done it for the past 2 years. Simple and efficient. Also, from everything I know about coffee beans, refrigerator storage is not recommended as it dries out the bean.

It sounds like the coffee will be very stale by the time you are done with it. Unless you plan on transfering the coffee into smaller bags and removing all the air to store, I would recommend buying a smaller bag, say a pound at a time.

Jar storage is what I use. Have not had my beans go bad. 5 lbs last me around 6 mo.

I use as bag every 2 to 3 months and each cup tastes the same to me. I use it in my automatic espresso machine.

If you put it into individual jars with sealing lids, and store it in a cupboard out of the light it keeps well. This way each jar stays sealed up until till you need it. I've gone moths on a bag with very little loss of freshness. My sister had the same concern so she split a bag with another person.

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.

They are not individually sealed, but each one stays fresh until you take it out of the opened package. In fact, I've kept an opened pack for nearly a year and they are still fresh.

I believe these are good for a year, unopened. After they're opened, they're good for a month.

I would wait. They would probably stay fresh, if they remained unopened but I would suggest ordering them around the end of August/beginning of September. I hope this helps :)

I'd say they're fine for 6 months or so. Have you tried then before? I would recommend tasting them before investing in bulk.

That wasn't my experience. I only found out when the package arrived and they were almost expired already. That only happened with one resseller. It was the cheapest price.

9 months after purchase they were just as fresh as when I first purchased them, but I threw them out bc I moved and no longer required them. So, I have no idea if they will last 10 years.

It last a very long time I've had mine for about a year as well and it's still pretty fresh. The price for the amount is great .

I believe they will last a very long time. They are dried, so there is no issue there, and I have some that are coming up on a year.

I would agree with the other reviewer. When I ordered a case they remained fresh until they were gone. If you have a couple a day they'll be gone before it would be a concern.

They are in nice sealed packages and I have had them for about 6 months, just opened one the other day it and still tasted great. I bet there is an expiration date on the package too.

As long as you don't open the package they ill last up to 6 months. I love them we had them yesterday. We can't eat a whole container so I take out 1/2 and put water in it and close up the container.

From what I recall, my candies just came individually wrapped in a clear plastic bag tied with a twist tie. No labels, nutrition info, or expiration date. I still have a few of the candies (kept in their wrappers in an air-tight glass jar) and the ones I've eaten recently still taste just as good as the first ones (which I think I bought a couple years ago now). I tried searching online but didn't find a clear answer as to how long/if they go bad/ From what I could gather, keeping them in the fridge/freezer can extend shelf life, and they ought to be okay as long as they haven't gone white.

I bought a case in January and they still taste fine. If you open the package then I imagine they will go stale in a similar timeframe.

I have bought new sealed ones that were dried out, so I don't think the shelf life is very long. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

I have bought bottles like that before. If you leave some of them sealed. I think they will last at least a year. Only open one at a time. I hope this helps. Donna
