How Fresh Are Delivered Beans?
The key question: does delivery compromise freshness? The answer depends on the roaster:
- Roast-to-order: Best option—beans ship within 24-48 hours of roasting
- Weekly roasting: Common for mid-sized roasters—ships within a week of roasting
- Pre-roasted inventory: Avoid—beans may be weeks old before shipping
Always check if the roaster lists their roast date. For peak freshness, look for delivery within 7-14 days of roasting.
Shipping Costs and Free Delivery
Shipping costs vary by roaster and order size:
- Standard shipping: $8-15 for standard post
- Express shipping: $12-25 for overnight or 2-day
- Free shipping thresholds: Many roasters offer free shipping over $50-75
- Subscriptions: Usually include free delivery
Factor shipping into your per-bag cost. Free shipping thresholds often make larger orders more economical.
Packaging Considerations
Quality roasters package for transit:
- Valve bags: Release CO2 while blocking oxygen—ideal for fresh coffee
- Weather protection: Many use insulated satchels for temperature control
- Transit time: Shorter is better—closer roasters may arrive fresher
Some roasters now use compostable packaging—a bonus for environmentally conscious buyers.
