Fellow Atmos Vacuum Canister for Coffee & Food Storage - Airtight Sealed Container, Clear Glass, Large Coffee Bean Storage, 1.2 Litre Jar

Product Information

I personally like the Coffeevac for its great seal, air doesn’t circulate in and out, and for its generous size, as it holds about a pound of coffee beans. Ease of cleaning: Between the ground- and whole-bean tests, we cleaned each canister following the included directions. We ran dishwasher-safe models through a regular machine cycle and hand-washed the rest in the sink. We noted whether there were any corners or crannies that held on to coffee grounds and whether there was any wear and tear on the seals or damage to the exteriors. Commercial coffee bean bags with CO2 degassing valves are designed to relieve CO2 pressure build-up and prevent bag rupture, not to necessarily keep coffee fresher for longer. In a vacuum chamber, the pressure is low enough that CO2 buildup is not a concern. CO2 in the air around the beans is non-reactive and will not affect the flavor of the coffee. CO2 does, however, affect your coffee’s flavor once you start brewing, so make sure to bloom your bed of grounds before brewing! Why did you make a clear glass Atmos if sunlight is a big contributor to coffee freshness? Manufacturers give the container measurements in volume, because this is the only valid measurement. You can’t tell how heavy the coffee is, because depending on the origin and the roast, the weight/volume ratio can differ considerably.

Espresso needs fresh coffee beans. If you don’t own an espresso grinder, do yourself a favor and buy one. It’s not only about freshness, using pre-ground coffee with espresso is almost an impossible mission. Umm Fellow, Atmos is definitely not the first vacuum canister on the market. What makes Atmos special? By providing Authority to Leave you agree that the parcel is deemed to have been received when left at your premises.If stored properly, whole bean coffee loses nearly all of its flavor in about six to nine months and ground coffee in about three to five months. Coffee steadily begins to lose flavor much earlier than this, however. Whole bean coffee tastes best when brewed within 14 days of roasting, and ground coffee is best within a shorter time frame of about 10 days. This window may feel brief, but don't worry: Coffee still tastes good even after these respective time periods have passed. Think of it as a reference point for when coffee is at its peak freshness rather than a deadline by which you have to brew. Old Dutch International Canister Set: This four-piece hammered copper set takes something timeless and mixes in new-age elements, such as silicone gaskets. However, the airtight seal wasn't the best. It was difficult to fully close the lids on some of the canisters in the set, indicating that air was getting in and out. The ones that did close were difficult to open and shut. It requires two hands and a lot of effort to remove the lid and get to your coffee beans. This size is perfect for me, since I don’t want to freeze specialty coffee, even though I know freezer storage is perfectly fine. But when you have a specialty coffee, you don’t want to take any risks.

Coffee (and other dry perishables) go stale for two main reasons: exposure to oxygen and humidity. Atmos and other containers on the market solve the oxygen problem by removing excess air. Atmos does so by lowering the pressure, whereas other devices remove excess air by physically shrinking the container. They're both effectively doing the same thing, but what makes Atmos unique is that it reduces both oxygen and humidity, subsequently extending the life of your coffee by up to 50%.
