What's the best way to store ground coffee?

Its a big misconception to store it in the freezer! The cold temperature dries out the beans. Coffee beans have a lot of oil and moisture in them and freezing strips it all out. They should be stored in an airtight container in a dark dry place. A tin is better than tupperware. That's why they come in a metal can.

Coffee does have a shelf life though, and will get stale after a year.

The best way to store ground coffee is in a cool, dark, dry place... but not the fridge or the freezer (except for certain situations *see below). Coffee absorbs food odors and condensation gives it a mildew taste. Coffee does not stale in a year like someone above me said. It stales in about a day if its ground, and about two weeks if it's in whole bean form. If you don't want to get a grinder the best way to store it is in a sealed container in a kitchen cabinet that contains no open food.

BTW you can store whole bean coffee in the freezer for a long time without a tremendous amount of staling, but only if it is vacuum sealed before carbon dioxide degassing which occurs until 24-48 hours after roasting.

you could buy whole bean coffee and then just grind when you need it.

Or store your ground coffee in an airtight container in the freezer .

Room temperature in an airtight opaque container.

Yes but u portion it out each day equally into zip lock baggies
