What do Taylor’s coffee bags contain?
Our coffee bags contain carefully roasted, ground coffee but brew right in your cup for proper coffee with no fuss. Because coffee bags are filled with coffee grounds from whole beans, they skip all of the processing and refinement that instant coffee goes through before it’s packed into the jar you see on the supermarket shelf. And less processing equals—you guessed it—a better-tasting drink.Believe it or not, that’s not just a smelling hole as I’ve heard it referred to before. It’s actually a one-way valve & it’s critical to the shelf life of the coffee and the preservation of the bag itself. When coffee is fresh roasted, it releases carbon dioxide. It’s basically a by-product of the roasting process.Air Harms Coffee Both the oxygen and moisture in air can harm coffee, shortening its shelf life and detracting from its qualities, so it’s important to let carbon dioxide out without letting air in.Avoiding Moisture and Oxygen Coffee releases CO2 after it’s roasted, which is why you see valves on coffee bags. Because of this, you do not want to store coffee in a sealed glass jar; fresh roasted coffee will continue to degas and build pressure, something we do not want happening in glass!When shopping for coffee, you may have noticed a round button-shaped device located closer to the top of the bag; look closer, a small hole in the middle of the button lets out air. That “button” is a one-way valve—air can flow out of the bag, but outside air can’t make its way in.
