How to Keep Coffee Pods Fresh (3 Steps)

Coffee pods are premeasured amounts of coffee that are placed into a circular filter and sealed. These pods must be used in conjunction with specialized coffee makers, such as Senseo and Tassimo, and allow coffee lovers to brew a single cup of coffee at one time. Coffee pods can become stale after the package that houses the individual pods is opened. Coffee pods that are stored correctly can be kept fresher to ensure a better tasting cup of coffee.

Things You'll Need

  • Airtight container

Instructions

  1. Place the coffee pods into an airtight container directly after opening the original packaging. This can be a plastic storage container or a plastic bag that seals tightly.

  2. Store the coffee pods in a dry area, as humidity can damage the pods and promote the growth of mold.

  3. Store the coffee pods in an area that is away from direct sunlight, such as a kitchen pantry or cupboard. This will ensure that the coffee does not lose its flavor.
