Your guide to Clearance

  • What is clearance coffee, and why is it discounted?

    Clearance coffee includes beans from previous harvests or those we’ve had in stock for a little longer. While still high quality, green coffee naturally changes over time, and some delicate flavours can start to fade. To reflect this, we offer these coffees at a discounted rate, making them a great option for roasters looking for value without compromising too much on quality.

  • How does the flavour of clearance coffee compare to fresh harvests, and how is it stored?

    Over time, green coffee can lose some of its vibrancy, with acidity and complexity softening. However, we store all our coffee—including clearance lots—under ideal conditions to help preserve flavour. This means stable moisture levels of 60%, room temperature without extremes, protection from light, and minimal air exposure. With the right storage, clearance coffees can still offer great character in the cup.

  • How long will clearance coffee stay fresh?

    When stored properly, clearance coffees can still perform well for months. While some delicate notes may fade, body, sweetness, and roast development potential remain strong. We recommend roasting and using them within a reasonable timeframe to enjoy them at their best.

Your questions, answered

What is the Green Coffee Collective?

We’re a community of coffee producers and sourcing experts, all working together to make green coffee easy to access—whether you’re a hobby roaster at home or a professional roasting hundreds of tonnes a year. Our platform is designed to simplify buying green coffee, just like any other online shopping experience. No fuss, just great coffee at your fingertips.

How do I know your coffees are top quality?

We totally get it - quality is everything! That’s why we offer samples for almost all our coffees, so if you’re unsure, you can try it yourself before committing. Plus, every coffee comes with a detailed, easy-to-read cupping report where we break down the scores using SCA protocol and list all the flavour notes. We’re all about transparency, so you’ll know exactly what you’re getting!

How do I find the coffee right coffee for me?

It’s super easy! Just head to our coffee pages and use the search filters to narrow down what you’re after. Whether it’s origin, process, or variety, the filters make it simple to find exactly what you want. You can also check out the main coffee categories through the top menu on our site. Give it a go—it’s straightforward, and if you need help, we’re always here!

Are your coffees ethically and sustainably sourced?

Absolutely! We source all our coffees either directly from producers or through trusted sourcing partners who are just as committed to ethical practices as we are. We take the time to ensure the people behind the coffee are treated fairly. If you want to learn more, you can dive into our values.

Can I cancel my order?

If your order hasn’t shipped yet, just drop us an email at orders@greencoffeecollective.com with your order ID, and we’ll take care of it. If it’s already on its way, we can still help. We’ll just need to arrange a collection. Either way, email us and we’ll sort it out for you. You’re in control!

Do clearance coffees include rare or experimental lots?

Occasionally, yes—but these tend to sell out quickly. Experimental fermentations, unusual varieties, and limited-run microlots sometimes make it into clearance, offering a rare chance to pick up something unique at a lower price.

Will clearance coffee still develop well in roasting?

Yes, clearance coffee still roasts well, though you may need to make slight adjustments. Older beans sometimes benefit from a gentler heat application early in the roast to retain complexity. With the right approach, clearance coffee can still produce well-balanced, flavourful results.
