Should you store coffee in the fridge?

Coffee should not be stored in the refrigerator – it usually does more harm than good. The humidity of the refrigerator and often the smells of other foods cause more harm to the taste of coffee than the theoretical slower aging benefits. If you want to keep coffee unused for longer periods of time, you can put it in an airtight package in the freezer. In this case, remember that the package must not be opened until it has definitely reached room temperature – otherwise the cold coffee will absorb condensating humidity that will harm the taste. It is advisable to store the daily coffee package in a dry and dark place where there are no strong smells.
