Corkcicle Coffee Canister

The canister features a plunger-style lid that you press down onto the coffee beans. This action physically pushes excess air out of the container and creates a vacuum-like seal, which significantly slows down the oxidation process that makes coffee go stale.

The canister measures 4.5 inches by 7.87 inches, which is generally sized to hold a standard 12-ounce bag of whole bean or ground coffee. If you buy in bulk, you may need to store the excess in a secondary location.

While the stainless steel body is durable, we recommend hand washing the canister and the internal compression lid components. This ensures the silicone seals remain intact and the mechanism continues to operate smoothly over time.

Yes, the airtight seal makes it an excellent choice for any pantry staple that is sensitive to oxygen, such as loose-leaf tea, nuts, or specialty grains. Just be sure to clean it thoroughly between uses to prevent flavor transfer.

Yes, the stainless steel construction is opaque, which prevents light from reaching your beans. Light exposure is a major factor in degrading coffee flavor, so this solid design provides better protection than glass or clear plastic containers.
