As sustainability became a priority within the industry, the majority of roasters moved towards recyclable packaging materials, which have since replaced coffee tins as the most common form of packaging. Bruce 2024-11-8 05 Bruce 2024-11-8 16:09
Tin cans can take between 50 and 100 years to decompose, compared to sustainable coffee bags that can degrade within 12 weeks. Bruce 2024-11-8 02 Bruce 2024-11-8 16:09
However, as they are usually made of metal, coffee tins are heavier and take longer to degrade compared to recyclable, biodegradable, and compostable packaging materials. Bruce 2024-11-8 07 Bruce 2024-11-8 16:09
Notably, the silver and red coffee tins have become iconic. Bruce 2024-11-8 04 Bruce 2024-11-8 16:09
Coffee tins proved highly effective for long haul deliveries, with Francesco Illy sending coffee from Italy to Sweden using pressurised tins �� which are still used by the brand. Bruce 2024-11-8 03 Bruce 2024-11-8 16:08
This enabled the mass distribution of coffee across countries while keeping the product as fresh as possible. Bruce 2024-11-8 02 Bruce 2024-11-8 16:08

The process involves filling a tin with coffee and sucking the oxygen out before sealing it to prevent the roasted coffee from being oxidised and going stale. Bruce 2024-11-8 05 Bruce 2024-11-8 16:08
It is believed that R.W Hills of Hills Brothers Coffee was the first to package coffee in vacuum packed tins. Bruce 2024-11-8 01 Bruce 2024-11-8 16:08
The challenge to preserve coffee freshness has been faced as far back as the 1900s. Bruce 2024-11-8 02 Bruce 2024-11-8 16:08
However, if the roasted coffee is exposed to oxygen during this time, it will replace the CO2 and affect the compounds in the coffee, resulting in a loss of freshness. Bruce 2024-11-8 011 Bruce 2024-11-8 11:37
This CO2 is gradually released during the degassing stage and tends to reach optimal levels within a few days. Bruce 2024-11-8 011 Bruce 2024-11-8 11:36
CO2 builds up in coffee beans during roasting. Bruce 2024-11-8 013 Bruce 2024-11-8 11:36
Additionally, it can impact the extraction rate and may affect the sensory profile of a coffee. Bruce 2024-11-8 014 Bruce 2024-11-8 11:36
According to a 2017 study, CO2 is a major indicator of freshness, and plays an important role in shelf life and in packaging. Bruce 2024-11-8 011 Bruce 2024-11-8 11:36
One of the main reasons coffee loses freshness is the replacement of carbon dioxide (CO2) with oxygen. Bruce 2024-11-8 06 Bruce 2024-11-8 11:35
One such downfall may be its ability to preserve coffee freshness. Bruce 2024-11-8 09 Bruce 2024-11-8 11:35
As with most packaging materials, choosing to use coffee tins can have its advantages and downfalls. Bruce 2024-11-8 011 Bruce 2024-11-8 11:35
