I use old mason jars to store my whole bean coffee in the freezer until I’m ready to grind and use it.
A coffee aficionado can probably chime in on why this is bad, but uts the best use I’ve found for the jars.
Freezing is okay and helps for storage of big bags, but freezing and taking them out and putting them back in every day isn't good because of the condensation.
But even then, it's probably fine.
I don’t do that. I only thaw and grind enough for about a month’s consumption at a time. I got ~6 pounds of coffee for Christmas and only have a cup a day usually.
I was just providing my process because it seems, unintentionally, well designed to avoid condensation.
Nice!
