This was specially designed for a ½ pound of Coffee. Tea people will hold 5 to 8 oz of Darjeeling and green teas. Coffeevac’s have a unique patented vacuum closure system, our 2-way valve, allows the carbon dioxide from the beans to slowly escape, without letting oxygen in. Solid and tinted models defend light-sensitive beans and tea leaves. Coffeevac’s save you money and guarantee smooth rich coffee flavor. The multi-use 8 oz Coffeevac can also be used for most dry & wet goods. Store conveniently on the countertop, in the pantry, the fridge, or the freezer.
