Not knocking Kicking Horse taste. Various blends I've tried have all been very good. Just posting to bring attention to the shrinkflation in this post. This normal looking 1 lb bag of coffee is actually only 10 oz. 🙄

If you're buying ground coffee, I think the taste is already compromised regardless of brand. You're knowingly buying stale coffee when buying ground.

These have been 10 oz. for a long time.

Completely agree.🤣 I clicked w/o realizing it was ground, then noticed the size... hence my post.

No coupon. Is this the same deal that was posted a week or two ago? If so, I already used it. Or it's YMMV

Not true. The presence of Oxygen accelerates coffee going stale. Once whole green coffee is roasted, it immediately starts to deteriorate if left in the open. It becomes somewhat noticeable (you can taste the difference if you compare it to freshly roasted -- but it is not a bad taste ) after 2 to 3 weeks in the air. It continues to deteriorate and looses positive taste notes as time goes on. Any coffee you buy that is open to the air and then bagged for you is suspect, unless you know when it was roasted.

If it is ground and quickly vacuum sealed in a can (with no Oxygen), it can stay fresh up to a year or longer.

If it is not ground, and put in a bag with a vent, the gases that are released pushes the air out and it stays fresher longer, but not as well as being vacuum sealed.

If it is roasted and ground and put put into a bag, it also releases gases that push out the Oxygen which keep it fresher longer. Whether it is whole bean or ground doesn't make that much of a difference.

A brand like Kicking Horse wants to feasibly bag the coffee as soon as it is roasted and ground so that they can get on to processing the next batch. Time is money and it also keeps the coffee fresher longer.

A little over 2 months ago Amazon stopped showing me those extra percent off coupons for subscribe and save. I've been told this is because after I received an order I would cancel the subscription. 6 weeks ago I started writing down things that I would have bought and the price. So far I've got close to $300 extra in my pocket. Thanks Jeffy!

Thank you for affirming to me that I don't need to keep a snobby coffee grinder on the counter to get my daily 3-4 cups of good-to-me coffee. 😊

My S&S orders are always five or more, so I get the extra 15% off. I have for years cancelled the orders when they arrive and I still get most of the coupons.
