Is there anything wrong with putting frozen beans straight in the grinder?
Nope. Possibly better.
@buff correll: Yeah I've been doing this and it comes out great! Just need to make the grind slightly coarser cos they are "fresh" then slowly make it finer after a few days.
I was only worried about the grinder if the beans will be harder when frozen, but if not, can definitely recommend straight from the freezer.
The issue is less with the frozen beans going in for that particular cup made fresh than it is opening up a whole bunch of beans to have condensation set in and affect the beans you are not using right then and storing.
Do you need to use defrosted frozen beans quicker?
At the moment I half-fill my hopper and just put the clipped/sealed bag in the cupboard, but that can still take me 2 to 3 weeks to use up. Can I do the same with a batch of defrosted beans?
Most other things go soggy or sweaty or more mushy once out of the freezer after all …

I prefer Inglewood's coffee over lime blue. I had been using Inglewood a while and then tried lime blue. I didn't like the taste, and found very little to no crema with the lime blue.
Black, cuppa or mocha? Inglewood coffee is much better for milk blends and flavoured coffees of any sort. Lime Blue is better for black coffee. I personally don't buy Lime Blue anymore and mostly get Inglewood. Their Sugar Daddy was incredible (fathers day special but if I ever see it again I'm buying in bulk).
EDIT: I can also vouch for the Espresso Hero Box, it's bean great :D
I normally buy the Brazil single origin from lime blue for a milk coffee, anyone know how this compares?
Looks like they started charging $2 for interstate shipping, used to be free.
Considering aus post are charging $1.50 (soon $1.70) to post an envelope, $2 for a 1kg bag of coffee seems abundantly reasonable.
Any 50% discount for sticky chai Rep?
Anyone with the Breville Barista Express and found the perfect settings for this blend? Ideally double shot
i think your mileage may vary, sunset blvd was my first time trying inglewood and it took me a while to dial in. I recall having to change the bur setting to grind finer than the factory bur setting as well compared to all the different types if blends when I was drinking AIRJO.
Haven't tried sunset blvd again, have yet to try roosevelt, their downtown has been my go to. super easy to dial, nice tasting and being a darker roast makes it easier to dial as I heard consumer espresso machines tend to struggle with lighter roast coffee
Burr grind size 4
Machine 4-5 grind size
Output usually 36-38mls at 24sec extract time with dosage 17.5g
May vary with machine. But this is what I use
I would recommend trying with burr 4 and grind 6 then work your way finer depending on extraction
Any decaf discounts coming up?
Inglewood does a 60% off storewide sale monthly…I usually wait for that and buy 2 kg of beans for free delivery and freeze them to keep fresh.
Yeah Inglewood always seem to have a sale just before I run out. I suspect it is there business model to do the 50+% off every month or so.
I always get a 1kg bag for around $30 and happy with the beans everytime. Tried sunset , Roosevelt and downtown and like them all.
IMHO the best of the roasters that often pop in here . I also like airjo
Will take me quite a while to use 1kg. Is there a good method for freezing beans to use at a later date?
