It‘s not only an inconvenience, but it could be a risk to open your door at any time without an appointment to all who knock. The best solution is to place your home in the hands of a local realtor. He or she will weed out curiosity seekers from prospects and bring them to your home only by appointment, always accompanying the prospects. On top of that, you will probably end up with more money than selling on your own. Most buyers contemplating buying directly from the owner see this as a means of saving money. When you deal with the professional real estate agent, this gives you a better chance to obtain more money because of the real estate agents particular negotiating process.

Green coffees keep for years, with only a slow, subtle change in flavour. But roasted coffees begin to lose flavour after two weeks, ground coffee an hour or two after grinding and brewed coffee in minutes. Roasted whole coffee beans keep fairly well. The bean itself is a protective package, albeit a fragile one. Store your whole beans in a dry, airtight container to prevent contamination or contact with moisture (not the refrigerator). Wholeâ€"bean coffee kept past a tr]noandth, though still drinkable, will strike the palate as lifeless and ead. Ground coffee goes stale in a few hours. The delicate oils are exposed and immediately begin evaporating. An airtight container helps, but not much. The oxygen and moisture shut inside with the broken coffee destroy the delicate oils, even if the container is never opened again. Canning coffee is one of the useless gestures typical of convenience foods. Canned coffee is not only preâ€"ground, but preâ€" staled. Freshly roasted and ground coffee releases carbon dioxide gas. If the coj}’ee were put in the cans fresh, the gas would swell ivenbthe strongest can and turn the can into an eggâ€"shaped time omb. The ideal coffee routine for urbanites ites would be: Buy the coffee as whole beans preferably from a store (The Second Cup) that has rigid freshness standards. Put the beans in an airtight container in a cool, dark place, and take only as much as you want to grind and brew immediatley. "Airtight" means, no recycled coffee cans or cottage cheese cartons with plastic lids; rather, a solid glass jar with a rubber gasket that gives a good seal.
