    If you are handy with a sewing machine, you could buy a roll of calico from Lincraft.

    This company http://www.claytons.com.au/environmental_calico.html sells calico cash bags.  The min order of 1000 ?should? apply to custom printing.  If youre happy with plain, they should play ball.  Otherwise....just ask 999 friends  :P

    Aldi sell them....Perhaps Andy might consider adding bulk packs of CS bags to beanbay... Alternately, most CS roasters will have a heap and many will probably be only too happy to fill a post pack for you...

    I asked at the local ANZ the other day and they told me they dont use calico bags anymore and they cant even order them from stationary.
    A few bean bays and youll soon accumulate a supply of them.

    You could always use old pillowslips. Thats what we use as a ham bag - I would probably not use the same pillowslip for ham and coffee however.

    Or if you are friends with someone who works in a bank, you can also use the calico bags they transport money in.

    Keep them in the cloth bags, in a cool, dry, dark cupboard with some ventilation. The legend is that they keep for 3 years. I dont have any that old yet.

    started a topic storing green beans

    storing green beans

    Hey everyone,

    been roasting greens for a little while and was thinking the other day as I sat watching my beans roast- "what is the best way to store my green beans"??
    Is it in a bag with a one way value, heshan bag, an air-tight container, doesnt matter they arent roasted??

    ta
