Coffee is more than just a beverage; it is a global obsession. From cosy cafes in Europe to bustling street stalls in Asia, coffee lovers can be found everywhere. Whether it is a morning ritual, a midday pick-me-up, or a reason to gather with friends, coffee holds a special place in people’s lives. With countless brewing styles and flavours, it caters to every taste, making it one of the most beloved drinks worldwide. However, always purchasing from outside can be expensive, so many people prefer to make coffee at home.
A common complaint among coffee drinkers is that stored coffee tends to harden or clump over time. Here are some tips to prevent moisture from affecting your coffee and to store it properly so it stays fresh:
Use A Small Bundle Of Rice To Absorb Moisture
To prevent coffee powder from clumping, place a small bundle of rice inside the container. The rice will absorb excess moisture, keeping the coffee dry and fresh.
Avoid Fully Opening The Coffee Container
When opening a new pack of coffee, do not remove the silver foil completely. Instead, make a small hole in the middle or on the side and use it to scoop out the coffee. This method helps prevent exposure to moisture, keeping the coffee fresh for longer.
Seal With Aluminium Foil
Before closing the lid, place a layer of aluminium foil over the container’s opening. This extra barrier prevents moisture from entering, ensuring the coffee remains dry and retains its flavour.
