Choosing
How to choose a size
- Choose by fill weight, then by bag style.
- Flat bottom bags hold the same weight in a shorter bag because of the wide side gusset.
- Dark roast beans take more space than light roast, so a bag holds a little less dark roast.
- Ground coffee packs tighter than whole beans, so the same bag holds more ground coffee.
- Printed samples cost about $60–$100 per size plus courier, so you can test your fill first.
Included on every size
Valve and zipper
- 22 × 22 mm valveEvery size includes a 22 × 22 mm one-way degassing valve with a filter.
- CO2 out, no air inThe valve lets CO2 out of freshly roasted beans without letting air in.
- Resealable zipperEvery size includes a resealable zipper; a standard zipper is 13 mm.
- Easy-tear optionFlat bottom bags can use a 22 mm easy-tear zipper on the back panel instead.
