I have a Soulhand and love it, they used to do glass jars but had issues breaking on people allot. Now I got 2 with stainless steel canisters in mat black, they also re-vacuum automatically. But this looks very nice to and I happen to need a 3rd canister. Might give this one a try. Thank you
No, the less light the better. The 3 things that ages beans are time, sunlight and oxygen. We can't do anything about time but we can control the other two.
I wish this was bigger because I love the concept but also why can't you use ground coffee in it? The other thing I'm hoping somebody might read this and answer me is they always tell you to measure coffee in grams as well I use tablespoons so when they say something is like 20 g how many tablespoons would that be? This has always been so confusing to me. I just wish I could use ground coffee in this canister because I don't grind my own beans and I also do wish the canister was bigger because like I said the concept is absolutely amazing. If somebody could respond I would appreciate it. I love these videos I learned so much from them. I actually watched one where you reviewed the same coffee machine I have which is the mocha Master cup one coffee maker and I absolutely absolutely love it.
I'm guessing you can't use ground coffee with this because fine particles like coffee grounds would get sucked into the vacuum motor and clog it. As well as grounds potentially getting between the glass and the rubber gasket also ruining the vacuum seal.
@@AlternativeBrewing thank you so very much. I actually just looked up the other canister that was mentioned out here and they also say you cannot use ground coffee because of the same exact thing. I used to grind my coffee but it's so messy and I have a cup one coffee maker so I wouldn't even know how much coffee beans to grind I do use 2 tablespoons for my cup of coffee but I don't know if I would still use 2 tablespoons of beans when grinding beans.
Does the oxygen in the canister not have an effect on the beans when a vacuum is pulled? I would have figured nothing would beat an Airscape given that inner lid always ensuring it would always ensure the least amount of oxygen.
AirScape are great too 🙌 The air left in the container does still interact with the beans yes - yet as the beans degass in there - the air becomes heavy with other gasses that it's exposed too and is less effective at degrading the beans - versus a constant replacement of fresh air.

Great stuff! Does it come in black or amber glass? Not a big fan of transparent cannisters for coffee
Not at the moment - yet am hopeful they'll bring them out 🙌
Looks like it might hold 300g!
yes it does 👌 and more sizes coming
Interesting. A follow up to Fellow who just recently released an electrified Atmos canister lid which works very similar.
@@GabrielGGabGattringer oh wow I will have to check out that other canister you had just mentioned.
Looks like you put heaps more than 30g in it.
I could have added 300g - that bag I had only had 250g in it. Weight out props 👌
@@AlternativeBrewingyou k know josh said 30g
Nah, that only looks like a third more than I use for my 20g basket.
@@buddahae86 🤣
Its better to keep the coffee beans on a opaque container?
No, the less light the better. The 3 things that ages beans are time, sunlight and oxygen. We can't do anything about time but we can control the other two.
@@DaneButler We can certainly do something about time - drink more coffee 😁

@@winexprt oh wow thank you so much for your response.
What @winexprt says is correct 👌

Soulhand did this several years ago. Why a clear canister? Don't you want an opaque canister to prevent light from degrading the beans? Just saying.
Is true 🙌 Could go with much better options. Im aware they're bringing out larger containers - hopefully along with other materials as well!
@@AlternativeBrewing thx

it doesn't seem smart to have transparent glas for coffee storage...
Unless you store your beans in direct sunlight, it's fine.
It’s pretty bad design . Don’t use visible transparent storage to keep your coffee.
Literally garbage, will do nothing for your coffee. But a lot for some pocketbooks.
pocketbooks? I dont understand sorry
