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 ๐ŸŒป

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.

Usually I attach a copper wire from the tin box to the faucet to make sure it's well grounded.

No, no. Not that type of grounded!

He means the coffee was bad and he sent it to its room with no phone. You're grounded mister (coffee)!

No no not that kind of grounded! They meant designating the coffee as unable to fly due to required maintenance, inclement weather, etc.

If the building is built to code, the ground connector on the wall outlets should also be well grounded. Some new buildings have plastic water pipes so the faucets might not be as grounded as they used to be.

Oh good to know! So then just put the wire in the ground hole of the electrical outlet?
