Should Leftover Brewed Coffee Be Refrigerated?

Simply pour the rest of the pot into a carafe and pop it in the refrigerator. Keeping the coffee cold preserves its flavor and aroma beyond the two-hour window. Experts say you can refrigerate coffee for up to a week. You can even reheat it from the fridge, but that won't taste as good as a freshly brewed cup.

Can you refrigerate coffee after brewing?

You can keep brewed coffee in the fridge for up to a week although it will not taste or smell as good as a freshly brewed cup. Just make sure to cover your cup or carafe to keep your drink from absorbing the scents and aroma of other foods or beverages inside the fridge.

How long does brewed coffee last unrefrigerated?

Brewed coffee can only last for 30 minutes at room temperature without its flavor being notably compromised.
