Coffee Beans
For best results:
- Your taste buds are the best judge on how to make the best cup
of coffee; so experiment until you find what you like.
- The fresher the coffee, the better the taste; buy only
what you will use within 2 to 4 weeks.
- Keep it in an airtight glass or glazed ceramic container,
perhaps in the fridge, but definitely away from direct sunlight and heat.
- Be sure your brewing water tastes good; try filtered or bottled
water if it doesn't.
- Measure water and coffee accurately every time.
- Drink it within 20 minutes after brewing, or store it in
a thermal container to keep it hot and fresh for longer periods of time.
- Clean (decalcify) your coffeemaker frequently.
Our demanding coffee buyer and enthusiastic attention to freshness have
brought Fante's coffees national recognition for our high standards of
quality.

The Fair Trade Certified label guarantees:
- A fair price,
- Quality products, and
- Care for the environment.

Some Tips for using old coffee grounds.
1. Soften and add shine to hair. When washing your hair, rub coffee grounds through wet hair and rinse. For brown hair, coffee grounds add highlights.
2. Use coffee grounds as an exfoliant for skin. Pat on skin, massage over skin, rinse.
3. Add coffee grounds to your skin mask beauty routine.
4. Make homemade tattoos (temporary) with henna and coffee grounds.
5. Fertilize plants. Old coffee grounds are nutrient-rich for plants that thrive in an acidic soil.
6. Add used coffee grounds to the pots of indoor plants.
7. Work used coffee grounds into your garden soil before seed planting. After your plants start to emerge, work in coffee grounds near the plants. Used coffee grounds are said to repel snails and slugs as well as adding nutrients to the soil.
8. Increase your carrot and radish harvest by mixing seeds with dry coffee grounds before planting the seeds.
9. Use coffee grounds to repel ants.
10. Keep cats from using your garden as a kitty box by spreading used coffee grounds and orange peels throughout flower beds.
11. Deodorize a freezer. Place a bowl with used coffee grounds in the freezer to remove unwanted odors. Add a few drops of vanilla to coffee grounds.
12. Rub coffee grounds on hands to get rid of smells from chopping or cutting up pungent foods.
13. Make a used coffee grounds sachet. Fill old nylons or cheescloth with dry used coffee grounds. Hang in closets to absorb odors.
14. When you need an abrasive cleaner, coffee grounds can be used. Be careful of any surfaces that might stain.
15. Remove furniture scratches with wet coffee grounds.
16. Got a fireplace? Sprinkle wet coffee grounds over the ashes to keep from becoming engulfed in the plume of dust ashes create when you need to remove them.
17. Dye fabric, paper or Easter eggs. Simply add used coffee grounds to warm water and let sit a bit to create a dye.
18. After you give your dog a bath, rub coffee grounds through the coat of your pet. Coffee grounds are said to repel fleas.
19. Keep bait worms alive by mixing coffee grounds into the soil before you add worms.
20. Grow mushrooms on old coffee grounds.
