Should You Freeze Coffee Beans? What the Research Actually Says
Freezing slows coffee staling 12.5x, but a free 5-second hack helps even more. A science-backed storage guide for Canadian coffee drinkers.
You pick the coffee, then the roast, grind, and amount. For every coffee in your plan, changeable before each weekly cutoff. Go ahead, try it:
The RoastPlan standard
Most subscriptions charge first and reveal later: the box just shows up, their roast, their grind, their amount. If that's ever burned you, the fix isn't a better box. It's control.
RoastPlan spells out your delivery every Thursday. Until Saturday 10 AM you can change everything or nothing: coffee, roast, grind, grams. We roast that morning and hand-deliver to Whitby on Sunday, free, and you're not charged until it roasts. Watch one order travel the week.

Used to gamble on expensive cafe beans hoping for the best. This is so much better – no guessing, just exceptional freshness every time. My French press is officially spoiled.
It's just good coffee, done right. Tastes leagues better than the old stuff I was buying. Plus, supporting a service that clearly cares about this level of quality is a win.

★★★★★My partner and I like totally different coffees, and this makes it SO easy. Both get what we want, specialty quality and super fresh. Mornings are less chaotic, for sure.

★★★★★Cancel before Saturday 10 AM and you were never charged a cent. No minimum charges, no prepaid terms that outlive your interest, no points held hostage.
