Coffee has
been prepared as a beverage since the fourteen hundreds, and it continues to be
popular around the world today. The fact that you are reading this article
shows that you probably enjoy drinking a good cup of coffee.
Many wonder
if coffee can go bad. The answer is yes it can go bad, however, it will not
make you sick if "goes bad". The coffee will simply loose some of its
quality and its pleasant taste. This short article will help you understand if
your coffee is still good or not before you make it.
Most coffee
that is purchased in a store will have a "best by" date. Ground
coffee will usually continue to be good three to five months after the
"best by" date when kept in the pantry. If you keep your ground
coffee in the freezer it will usually still be good up to two years after the
"best by" date.
Unground
whole coffee beans have longer shelf life and will last three to five months
past its "best by" date. They will usually last up to 5 years past
the "best by" date when kept in the freezer.
Instant
coffee goes through a process that freezer dries it in order to preserve
it longer.
It will last for about 20 years. , if you don't think that is long enough it
should last indefinitely in the freezer!
If you
don't keep the original package and can't remember how long it has been since
you opened the coffee there is a simple test that you can do to understand if
your coffee is still good. If the smell is gone or almost gone that means that
the coffee will not taste as good as it should.
We hope
this article will help you to always prepare a great cup of coffee!
