Why is my bag not sealed?

Not all of our roasters heat seal their bags. Good news, it doesn't affect the taste, flavor or freshness of the coffee in any way!

The 1 and only reason has to do with the de-gassing of freshly roasted coffee. After coffee is roasted, the freshly roasted beans slowly "de-gas" and give off small amounts of CO2 for a 3-5 day period.

If the bag is left sealed, it will actually give off enough gas to fill the bag like a balloon and often times pop. Therefore, coffee roasters will have either a 2-way degassing valve on their bags and/or they will leave the bags unsealed altogether.
