Why does my amazingly bright tasting natural stop tasting amazing after a week of rest?


  • I have experienced this a few times. I cup the coffee after a day or so of rest and it's is buzzing, popping, amazingly bright and yummy. But then after a week or two or rest, it looses that buzzing, popping, amazingly bright and yummy tasted and becomes more muted or balanced with chocolate notes. Any ideas on why that is would be appreciated. I'm guessing maybe the outside of the bean is roasted darker than the inside?

    Here is roast graph for a bean that just did this. - https://roast.world/my/roasts/R0T3jFy99UW_DaH2LSQsP

     



  • @John Uriarte 

    What are you storing the coffee in after roasted?


  • the flavor profile deteriorates rapidly about 10 days after roasting.  I enjoy my coffee between day 4 and day 7 after roasting and the beans are stored in an airtight jar.  I think CO2 escaping from the beans is the primary cause.
