Coffeevac 1 lb - The Ultimate Vacuum Sealed Coffee Container, Black Cap & Body

Good product

Ich bin absolut begeistert von meinem Tightvac! Endlich habe ich einen Behälter gefunden, der meinen Kaffee perfekt aufbewahrt, ohne dass die Aromen verloren gehen. Das merkt man sofort beim Öffnen – es gibt einen spürbaren Sog, der zeigt, wie gut er verschlossen ist. Das Design ist schlicht und unauffällig, genau wie ich es mag. Mit einem kleinen Sticker kann man ihn problemlos beschriften, was super praktisch ist. Und durch die Schwarzfärbung bietet der Tightvac auch Schutz vor Licht, sodass ich ihn problemlos draußen aufbewahren kann, ohne mir Sorgen machen zu müssen, dass der Inhalt an Qualität verliert. Aber das Beste ist, dass er nicht nur für Kaffee ideal ist. Ich nutze ihn auch für Tee, Gewürze und sogar für Kräuter. Alles bleibt schön frisch und behält seinen Geschmack. Die luftdichte Versiegelung hält Feuchtigkeit fern und sorgt dafür, dass nichts austrocknet. Ein weiterer großer Pluspunkt ist die einfache Handhabung. Der Behälter lässt sich leicht öffnen und schließen, ohne großen Kraftaufwand. Und da er in verschiedenen Größen erhältlich ist, finde ich immer die passende Größe für meinen Bedarf – ob ich nun eine kleine Menge Tee oder eine größere Menge Kaffee aufbewahren möchte. Der Tightvac ist robust und langlebig, was mir sehr wichtig ist. In der Küche, im Büro oder unterwegs – ich kann mich darauf verlassen, dass meine Lebensmittel sicher aufbewahrt sind. Es kann nichts auslaufen oder ausstreuen. Insgesamt bin ich rundum zufrieden mit meinem Tightvac. Er kombiniert Funktionalität mit einem dezenten Design und sorgt dafür, dass alles frisch und aromatisch bleibt. Ein Must-Have für alle, die Wert auf Qualität und Frische legen.

I was surprised to find out both how fast coffee loses its flavor, and how good fresh can really taste. I got into roasting my own green beans (available HERE on Amazon: Costa Rica Dota Estate, Green Unroasted Coffee Beans, 1lb ) with one of the poppers still on Amazon that will do so (they are HERE: Toastess TCP-713 Hot-Air Popcorn Popper and HERE: Toastmaster Hot Air Popcorn Popper TPC2 ), then brewing them in the inexpensive little Bialetti Italian moka pot (available HERE: Bialetti 6800 Moka Express 6-Cup Stovetop Espresso Maker ) for AMAZINGLY fresh coffee I'd never experienced being American! All the barista sites I've surfed (source aapbr dot org) told me that: green coffee beans, when cool and dark, last a year or two in storage, and some (Arabica) even get better with age. Once you roast them, after three or so days of CO2 release, they start to lose flavor within TWO WEEKS! Once you grind the beans, the grounds start to lose flavor in FOUR DAYS. This is all trumped by the correct storage techniques. Here are the ones I've tried on Amazon that work GREAT, and don't cost a fortune like the vacu seal machines that can be over $200 US! Green beans: I use the "pseudo vacuum" of the COFFEEVAC (see it here: Tightvac Coffeevac 1 Pound Vacuum Sealed Storage Container, Solid Black Body/Cap ) which isn't a vacuum at all, but works fine for green. Does NOT work for new roasted as it doesn't have a co2 release valve. Freshly roasted beans step one: For the first 3 to 4 days you need a container with a CO2 release system. One (the Friis, see it HERE: Friis 16-Ounce Coffee Vault, Stainless Steel ), is more expensive and has replaceable filters. The other (The bean safe, see it HERE: BeanSafe "The Coffee Storage Solution", Polypropylene -MOCHA ) is cheap, and only has a small valve, but doesn't require replacement filters. Freshly roasted beans step two: Best is to use right away after the three day roast period. Roast just enough for your next few day's needs. The normal popcorn popper will take 81 grams for roasting green beans (about ½ cup or about 5 tablespoons green). These yield (bigger) roasted beans of about 9 tablespoons. Since a tablespoon of ground is roughly the same as a tablespoon of roasted beans, and the moka takes 3 tablespoons for 6 cups of espresso/moka each pot, that gives you roughly three days of roasted beans. I keep the roasted (since they will be used in a few days) in the next "step up" of vacuum: a semi-true vacuum with the airscape sealer (see it here: Planetary Design Airscape 64oz Chrome ). This gets close to a "real" vacuum, and just enough to let a little extra CO2 escape over those 3 days. FINALLY, for fresh grounds, the most vulnerable, you'll need a true vacuum to extend the life. I use the handheld freshsaver from foodsaver (10% of the cost of the foodsaver system, see it here: FoodSaver FSFRSH0060-035 FreshSaver Handheld Vacuum Sealer with Starter Kit, Red ) with the little "Tupperware" reusable foodsaver tubs. In the cool/ dark (don't refrigerate) this vacuum will keep fresh grounds fresh for over a week, close to the taste when just roasted. For background, I'm not a coffee snob, but as a throat cancer survivor I have barely any taste buds left and coffee is one of the few great tastes that still work. Also, the above is FAR less expensive than either buying drip or certainly Starbucks. Amazon has green beans of very high quality (see link in first paragraph). These can be (eg. Sumatran Arabica) over $40+ a pound roasted, not very fresh when you get them, and you can get them for under $10 at times on Amazon GREEN, REAL savings. Enjoy!

Me lo aspettavo più piccolo, però è davvero eccezionale, non crea un sottovuoto ma elimina gran parte dell’aria. Lo uso per caffè e mantiene molto l aroma dei grani. Fantastico

Es hermético para los olores pero no para la humedad, pero está muy bien.

Very happy with this coffee container. Keeps the beans fresh. Easy to us. Very happy.
