  • How should I store green coffee beans for Gene Café roasting?

    To get the best results from your Gene Café roaster, store your green coffee in a cool, stable environment between 20-25°C (68-77°F) with humidity around 60%. Maintaining proper moisture levels in your beans is key for even roasting. If beans are too dry, they may roast too quickly yet too much moisture can cause uneven development.

    Light, heat, and oxygen all affect freshness over time. An airtight, opaque container or vacuum-sealed bag will help prevent oxidation, keeping your beans in peak condition. Storing them in a dark cupboard or pantry ensures they remain fresh and roast consistently, batch after batch.
