Chris and Doran are joined by Tonx (Tony Konecny) from YES PLZ from Los Angeles, CA. We discuss a paper from the Yeretzian lab out of ZHAW. The paper aims to address a common question for the home coffee consumer, "How should you store your coffee one the bag is open?".
We immediately thought of Tonx and YES PLZ, who have experimented with various packages for their subscription service. We hope you enjoy the episode.
The paper:
Food Packag. Shelf Life, 2022, 33, 100893.

The article can be found in coffee literature library: https://pages.uoregon.edu/chendon/coffee_literature/coffee_lit_rev/.
About Tonx: Legend of subscription coffee, Tonx started Tonx coffee and later a coffee/restaurant venture called LocoL. Pre-pandemic he rolled out his current subscription service, YES PLZ. Good timing — home coffee consumption exploded during the 2020-2021 years.
