S.is a warning to every lover of fine coffee. Beware of Oxygen, that light- “fingered thief of flavor, now known to attack coffee the instant roasting is complete. Just read these amazing facts es- tablished in the laboratories of a leading Eastern University: (1) Loose or bag coffee loses 65% of its flavor in nine days after roasting. ‘2) Coffee in old-fashioned cans loses 45% of its flavor in nine days after roasting. All due to the attack of Oxygen! Think of it! Forty-five to sixty-five per cent of the flavor gone from nine-day-old coffee. Even vacuum packing, a definite improvemént over old-fashioned methods, removes only part of the air from the can, leaving gealed in enough Oxygen to cause flavor loss and deterioration.
