Bulk Coffee: Save Money Buying Coffee In Bulk

Bulk Coffee Programs

A bulk coffee program is a plan that will ship you a predetermined amount of coffee each month. The amounts vary, so make sure you find a plan which suits your needs. Begin by ordering a conservative amount to make sure you aren't stuck with too much coffee on your hands. Most of the plans offer a house blend brand of coffee which may be imported from Sumatra, Kenya, Central America or South America.

Find Bulk Coffee Online

If you buy bulk coffee online, you should be able to find it at a discount. But don't just look at the discount price - also be sure to checking out what the shipping costs are. The shipping cost may be sizable since bulk coffee ships in bags weighing up to 25 pounds. One way to cut down on shipping costs is to find a local distributor. This will not only save money, but will also get your coffee to you faster. The last thing you want to do is to end up paying high overnight shipping costs for 25 pounds of bulk coffee.

Make sure you brew Bulk Coffee Correctly

If you do own a restaurant, coffee house, or large business and are making a lot of coffee, be sure to use a commercial grade coffee machine for brewing your bulk coffee. The same coffee maker you use at home cannot make coffee fast enough and does not produce hot enough water for optimal brewing. Using very hot water is one of the secrets to the great coffee served at your favorite restaurant or coffee shop.

If you don't consume a lot of coffee in a short amount of time, purchasing bulk coffee may not be your best option. For great coffee, it's best to only buy enough coffee to last you a month at the most. Even though buying bulk coffee will save you money, you'll be disappointed in the taste of your coffee if it sits on your shelf much longer than 30 days.
