Hi all
I purchased a Sunbeam EM7000 back in June. Nice little machine and I decided to get a Bodum grinder to go with it.
Long story short, I'm on my second EM7000 right now, and the Bodum is actually fairly decent, but sometimes fails to (I think) grind fine enough; it can be a bit erratic.
So I managed to pick up a new Smart Grinder Pro last week for ~$160 from the Good Guys, and want to test it out today on my newly arrived roasted beans (Sumatran Mandheling Select from Beanbay... I really like this one!!).
For the past few months I've kept the beans in the bag shipped from Beanbay, and only used enough in the Bodum hopper for a single grind.
This might sound like a silly question (I'm new to this) but is it okay to keep all the beans in the Breville hopper? Will they lose "freshness" faster than leaving them in the bag? Or should I continue doing what I did with the Bodum and just add as many beans as I'd need for a single or double dose?
Cheers!
