      That's right, it is all in your imagination.
      Oxygen, moisture and light are the enemies. The plastic/foil packaging excludes all of that.
      Grow your own friggin' beans if you want it fresher.

      Coffee snobs are worse than audiophiles with their oxygen-free copper and unidirectional cable.

        Nope - I'll just purchase mine freshly roasted from the local shop. I pick them up as I need them, grind them right before I brew them and enjoy delicious coffee. Sometimes I even enjoy a bargain from some of the fine purveyors that offer deals on this site right here.

        I can taste the difference as I get to the end of the bag (about 2.5 weeks later), and again when I start a new bag. Far from being in my imagination.

        But hey, if you enjoy the stale old stuff then go nuts. It's certainly cheap

          Maybe, possibly, you might even do that on a double-blind test, that's because the seal has been broken, and oxygen and moisture admitted.

        • What do you think's going to happen when these bags are opened? Are you going to consume that whole bag of pre-ground, roasted who knows when, shipped from overseas coffee right there on that day?

          Or are you proposing a double-blind taste test of fresh roasted coffee and this stuff here after the bag has been opened and sitting on the counter for a week? Who do you think will win that comparison?

    Seems like a very good price, you took a sniff at it? Still good?

    I thought we were all getting our coffees from michel's patisserie this month?

  • I buy Vittoria bean coffee when it's on sale like that from Safeway Woolworth and others.

    I would buy around 2 to 4 kgs each time. Though I understand that you should have "fresh" coffee, but if I miss the sale, I might end up paying $22 to $30 a kilo!

    You wouldn't be able to find it "fantastic" over daily dosage, but it would taste horrible if you are to try other brands around $20/kg. So, it's fine by me.

    • OMG! I might have to pay normal price to get fresh ingredients.
      Do you buy 7-day old bread because it's cheap?

    Good idea. Better than bars or internet dating sites.
    Girls shopping at Ikea will probably not blow all your money.

    • And hopefully know how to build some stuff (at least with an Allen key)
