Simple fact: Coffee frozen on the 7th day after roasting will take approximately 5 years and 8 months to reach the same aging stage as coffee left at 25 ºC for 30 days.

Freezing coffee? What's the benefit?
⠀
Well, freezing coffee is good for several reasons:
Keep the coffee flavor at its best
Improve grinding texture since frozen coffee beans are ground more smoothly
Store a variety of types of coffee
Prevent coffee aging process
⠀
So, it sounds easy to freeze coffee and enjoy it for a much longer time. However, do not forget that good storing is another critical value.
⠀
Just remember that coffee stored in an unsealed package is likely to be less tasty than coffee stored in a vacuum bag.
⠀
Also, keep in mind that light roasting coffee can become tastier a week or two after roasting. Therefore, it is worth considering this when choosing the time to freeze particular coffee specialties.

As we care about sustainability, let's talk about reusable filters.
⠀
Filters made of paper are the most common, but there are other options too: metal, nylon and cloth.
⠀
A simple cloth filter has some pores, so it allows the oils from the coffee beans to pass through. This way it gives your coffee a crunchy and distinct flavor. But you should remember that such filters must be carefully rinsed and completely dry before each new use.
⠀
Likewise, a metal filter lets the oils pass through during the brewing process. In the end you will get a more robust and visibly darker cup of coffee. A nice bonus is that metal filters are normally dishwasher-friendly.
⠀
Due to some pores, nylon filters may still let coffee dust and oils through. That's why you may notice a slight sediment in your cup of coffee. You can use a dishwasher to clean such filter, but better do it by hand.

Recently I saw reusable ceramic filters from Japan. Has anyone tried them yet?
