Re: Storing tea?

I use Co2 for preserving all my dried herbs and anything i dont want oxidation. Its an inert gas that heavier than air. I used to home brew my own beer,and thats where i got the bottle of gas. You can get it cheap enough on ebay. Depending where you are,its failry cheap. $100 per year. you hardly use any gas for Tea or herbs. On the bottle,there is “tap” that you use to attach a thin plastic pipe. I use one thats 300mm long. I then put the tube all the way to the bottom of whatever bag or glass bottle you use. Turn on the “tap” just so you hear a slight hiss. I usually wait 1 minute,then turn it of. If you have to fast a rate of gas,you cause lots of turbulence. Go slow and it works best. Ive noticed a big differance to freshness and when i dry 2 kilos of green tea leaves,Im going to use this idea.
