Frequently Asked Questions: 1kg vs 250g Coffee Bags
Why is the 1kg bag better value than buying multiple 250g bags?
Our 1kg bags offer significant savings per gram compared to smaller sizes. When you buy in bulk, you're paying less for packaging and handling, which we pass directly to you. On average, choosing a 1kg bag saves you 20-30% compared to buying four 250g bags of the same coffee.
Will a 1kg bag stay fresh before I finish it?
Absolutely! If you're drinking 2-3 cups per day, a 1kg bag will last approximately 2-3 weeks. Our coffee is roasted fresh to order and packaged in resealable bags with one-way valves to maintain optimal freshness. For best results, store your coffee in a cool, dark place and keep the bag sealed between uses.
How much does the 1kg size save me per cup?
Based on a standard 15g dose per cup, a 1kg bag gives you approximately 66 cups of coffee. The per-cup cost is significantly lower than smaller bag sizes, making it the smart choice for daily coffee drinkers.
Is the 1kg size good for subscriptions?
Yes! The 1kg size is perfect for our subscription service. Most regular coffee drinkers find that a 1kg bag delivered monthly offers the ideal balance of freshness, convenience, and value. You’ll never run out, and you’ll save money on every delivery.
Plus, when you subscribe, you get 15% EXTRA coffee — that’s an extra 150g with every 1kg subscription order.
What if I drink different coffees throughout the month?
Many of our customers mix and match! You can subscribe to multiple coffees in smaller sizes, or alternate between different 1kg bags each month. Our subscription service is flexible – you can adjust your preferences anytime.
Does buying 1kg reduce packaging waste?
Yes! Choosing a 1kg bag instead of four 250g bags means 75% less packaging waste. It's better for the environment and aligns with our commitment to sustainable coffee practices.
Can I try a coffee in 250g before committing to 1kg?
Of course! We recommend trying new single origins or blends in 250g first. Once you've found your favourite, upgrading to 1kg is a great way to save money and ensure you always have your go-to coffee on hand.
