Roasted to order and stamped with the roast date, not a best-before.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA roast date rather than a best-before is the single most useful thing printed on a bag of coffee. Beans need a few days to release carbon dioxide and are at their best somewhere between four and twenty-one days from roast, which a best-before date tells you nothing about.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWashed processing strips the fruit off before drying, and that is what leaves the citrus and floral notes clear instead of jammy. Keep the bag sealed at room temperature: a fridge introduces condensation, which does more harm than a week on the shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree hundred and forty grams is about twenty cups at a standard filter dose, which for coffee roasted to order means the bag is finished inside the window it is good in rather than going stale at the back of a cupboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe one-way valve lets carbon dioxide out without letting oxygen in, which is what makes a sealed bag of genuinely fresh coffee possible. Yirgacheffe at 1,900 to 2,200 metres is high-grown, and altitude is most of the reason the acidity reads as bright rather than sour.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BuyScout","offers":[{"title":"Whole bean","offer_id":48079020064931,"sku":"MERIDIANSIN-01","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Filter","offer_id":48079020097699,"sku":"MERIDIANSIN-02","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Espresso","offer_id":48079020130467,"sku":"MERIDIANSIN-03","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"French press","offer_id":48079020163235,"sku":"MERIDIANSIN-04","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0772\/8440\/9507\/files\/meridian-single-origin-coffee-primary.webp?v=1788396383"},{"product_id":"meridian-decaf-blend","title":"Decaf Blend 340g","description":"\u003cp\u003eSwiss Water decaf — no solvents. A Colombian and Brazilian blend, roasted a little darker to give it body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Swiss Water process removes caffeine using water and carbon filters rather than solvents, so nothing is left behind for you to taste. Decaf loses some structure whatever the method, which is why this one is a blend and roasted a shade darker.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is 99.9% caffeine free rather than entirely free, which is the honest figure for any decaf. Storage is the same as for any fresh coffee: sealed, at room temperature, and not in the fridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eColombian Huila and Brazilian Cerrado are blended because each covers the other's gap: Huila brings acidity, Cerrado brings body, and decaffeination flattens both. The slightly darker roast puts back some of what the process takes out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSwiss Water costs more than solvent decaffeination, and that is why this is priced level with the single origin rather than below it.
