Such a key question. Once roasted, coffee can stay fresh for several weeks — even a full month or two, if it’s sealed in an airtight container away from heat, light, and moisture. As it happens, our 250g coffee cans keep beans beautifully fresh, with their opaque material and the oxygen-scavenging seal in the cap. We’ve even had great results from freezing the beans, again in airtight, watertight packaging.

We tend to find coffee is too fresh if it’s brewed right after roasting, as the beans haven’t had time to rest and degas. Try it and you’ll find all that gas actually disrupts the contact of water to grinds, causing uneven extraction. Give the beans 3-7 days to age, and you’ll enjoy those exciting funky flavours all the more.

At the Coffee Bar, we actually age our espresso for at least three weeks before service!

Ideally, one week after the roast date — but at our Coffee Bar, we rest our espresso (sealed in its bag and stored away from heat, light, and moisture) for three weeks.

We want our coffees to be a full expression of the varietal, terroir, and process that the producers have so masterfully cultivated. So we roast the beans just long enough for our good friend Maillard to bring those funky flavours to palatable, aromatic life. Any longer and the exciting, naturally-occuring acidity in the coffee starts to degrade, and the flavour vibrancy we’re crazy about begins to dim.

As we love to say — acidity is not a crime, and you deserve better than bitter!

No sweat — the tasting notes we list are simply the flavours that coffee reminds us of, not in any way a reflection of the ingredients. Our coffees do not interact with anything else in our roastery, except for our barrel-aged coffees. They may have been grown or shipped alongside other products but generally there are no lasting vestiges of any allergens.

Acidity is the stuff of life!! It’s acidity that makes our favourite foods so next-level delicious. Think about how much you’d miss the tangy tomato sauce on your pizza, the hot sauce on your chicken wings, or the ketchup on your fries… 

That secret pickle juice addition makes potato salad a million times better. Bananas would taste only of sugar without a smidge of tartaric acid. And believe it or not, honey is quite acidic, landing somewhere between 3.2 adn 4.5 on the pH scale (right up there with grapes, peaches, and tomatoes).

We roast our coffee light here at FUNK, which means the naturally occurring acids (citric, malic, acetic, lactic, etc.) that result from the unique combination of varietal, growing conditions, region, processing, etc. and create such exciting profiles, tend to degrade when exposed to higher temperatures for longer periods of time.

Quinic acid, meanwhile, develops as those acids degrade during roasting, creating sour, bitter, and astringent flavours. You deserve better than bitter, so we lean into bright, sparkling acidity!

So glad you asked! They’re emblematic of when we roasted coffee and brewed beer under the same roof as House of Funk. We were gifted the can concept by our beer brethren — the crowlers are usually made for holding beer, but they’re actually ideal for coffee: the aluminum is porous, shielding the contents from air and light; there’s an oxygen-scavenging seal in the cap that continues to draw oxygen out of the can even once opened; and the sides provide ample real estate for showcasing funky artistic collaborations.
