Well, thanks to all for these great suggestions - and coffee stories.
Joe, you brought me back with the Chock full o nuts song lmao, and the
apt observation that the brand was better appreciated by an older generation.

Charmion you are hilarious and I hope your husband continues to
make coffee for you and the entire Duke Wayne fan club (OT my book club
just finished reading True Grit; yes it was a book, who knew? ) and
the one thing we all agreed on is not a one of us wanted to live in
those pioneer days of sleeping on the cold winter ground outdoors on a
bed of damp straw)

And I am intrigued by the idea of 'easy' cold press- if you re still here,Gilly
more; do you leave the coffee out on the counter or in the
fridge while ' brewing'?

So I ve now learned to keep the coffee as airtight as possible and I m
going for putting the open tin or bag in a ziplock and leaving
it on a dark cool countertop. And next time I am poking around
a flea market or such, I think I'll pick up an airtight container.. Thanks,
cats!
