I lost my sense of smell last year. I love cooking and don’t know when I’ll be able to smell spices again. I threw away a new bottle of Italian seasoning because it didn’t have any smell. (My friend got it out of trash and passed it around so everyone could see it was fine.) for now, I’ll go by the date.

Another way to keep fresh spices on hand is to buy them in small quantities. I’m never going to empty a whole spice jar’s worth of some spices like cloves that I love but infrequently use. I don’t know how available they in other parts of the country, but Spicely sells a wide variety of quality organic spices in small 0.45 oz boxes. It’s a pricey way to buy herbs and spices you use all the time like oregano and cinnamon, but it makes more sense than buying a whole bottle of something used so infrequently that most of it is bound to go stale. I just dump my Spicely box contents into an old jar I’m refilling or into a new one.

2:21 Tip: never use a blade grinder for coffee unless you're super hard up. Invest in a good burr grinder for a consistent grind size - especially if you buy quality beans - because those blade grinders are atrocious for that purpose. You'll have everything from dust size powder to large chunks, which means some of your coffee will be over extracted and some will be under extracted, and you'll be prone to clogging and inconsistent flow through the coffee bed.
