I just read the other posted topic “ Freshly roasted beans taste better "in a few days"?
…and noticed some of the reply’s about trying beans at different post roast date’s and decided to post this.
I purchased my first lot of “freshly roasted” bean’s last weekend from a boutique roaster, I bought 4 x 250grm sample packs of different bean type’s to try. When I got home I noticed the pack’s that they gave me had no Roast dates on (are they supposed to have?) there was only a sticker on the back with the date of “Oct 10” stamped on all 4 packs,… what would that be, an expiry date?
How I am supposed to play around and try different post roast date’s if there isn’t a Roast date put on .?
Should there be a "Roasted" and/or a "Use By Date" on these packs?...."STREWTH"...even my supermarket brand Vittoria has a Use by Date :
