Ventilation is key to maintaining your beans healthy and in good condition and prevent mould formation. Make sure that the room you store your beans in has enough ventilation to allow the air in the room to circulate. Ideal temperature: below 15 degrees Celsius. Ideal relative humidity: 75-85%.
To prevent any possible contamination of your production room, store the beans separately to avoid the possibility of a stray moth laying eggs in your chocolate.
