About the Freshness Valve

The patented Freshness Valve is the key to eliminating trapped CO gas. We suggest replacing your Freshness Valve every two months. The valve is constructed with a unique filter that allows carbon dioxide gas to pass through without allowing oxygen or other gases back in. This one-way valve removes the trapped gas that breaks down and destroys coffee flavor over time.

All coffee is roasted, both whole bean and ground. This roasting process heats the coffee bean and caramelizes the sugars in coffee. It is this roasting process that creates the flavor degrading gas. Coffee is perishable much like fruit, milk or bread and keeping coffee fresh is very important. Without a freshness valve coffee can not be kept fresh.

The Friis Coffee Savor Date Wheel

 

We suggest replacing your Freshness Valve every two months. To help remind you, we’ve added a helpful date wheel to the top of your Friis Coffee Savor. This roating wheel is designed to help you set a monthly reminder to replace your valve on the appropriate day.

Using your finger and thumb, move the date wheel to expose a numbered day. Once you set the appropriate day, you will automatically be reminded to replace your valve on that day.
