Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

It varies by the coffee. Safest window is probably between 1 week after roasting, then 2 weeks after that. Lighter roasts last longer, but I imagine Raglan is medium-to-dark.

Oh, and pre-ground coffee won't last as long. If you don't have one, a grinder can really help get the best cup of coffee.

Thanks! Yeah I grind my own these days. I didn't realise coffee was supposed to be rested so long!

Sites are so keen to get you to sign up to a subscription to get the freshest coffee every week, I had assumed that made the best coffee.

Yeah, a week can feel like an eternity when you've got coffee you really want to try. I usually buy my coffee from cafes so it's ready to go.
