Hiya, just quickly wondering how people store their coffee? Mine is in a tin box I got second hand, cos I thought it looked nice. Any rules regarding storing grounded coffee? I don’t store much at the time, it’s just if I grind a little too much and what not. I’m assuming the general thumb rule for this is to store it in a closed container.

Feel free to share pics of your containers 🌻

Edit: My grinder doesn’t allow for selective ground mode, but a new grinder is defo on the list! Seems like keeping them as beans for as long as possible - is the way.

    I see a lot of people recommending the Timemore C2 as a cheap first grinder. Look for one on AliExpress and it’ll be cheaper than scAmazon. <$50 that sounds like the best option. I dug around a bit earlier and it looks like you can get one for ~$40 when they’re on sale.

      I haven’t used that specific model, but Timemore makes great stuff. Them and 1zpresso are the class of the current gen of hand grinders imo.

        Yeah, I have a 1zpresso k ultra and it’s a phenomenal grinder. I haven’t fired up my electric grinder since I bought it.
