Properly storing your Folgers® Coffee also will help you preserve the best flavor. We recommend storing Folgers Ground Coffee in the refrigerator with the lid tightly closed. You can store Folgers Instant Coffee in the refrigerator or at room temperature, but the lid should be tightly closed. Whole Bean coffee should be kept in an airtight container in the freezer or refrigerator, or at room temperature.
