OTHER FACTORS TO CONSIDER ARE:

Store coffee in a dark cool cupboard, in an airtight bag or container.

If you have a grinder at home, it’s best to grind fresh for optimal flavour.

Each coffee is unique. Factors like the roast level, batch, density of the bean,
roast depth (moisture) can impact the ideal grind size for each new coffee you brew.
So, treat the above recommendations as a good starting point, and feel free to
tweak by a point or two when dialing in a new coffee.

Over time, the burrs in your grinder will wear down and may produce uneven,
coarser grinds. If your grind setting isn't working well, check the burrs with the
manufacturer to ensure they are still sharp.
