> bought 40kg online

You are aware that roasted coffee is a perishable product? After roasting, it is at its best for just a few weeks. After just two months it has lost the best of its flavours, but for "bulk" coffee the taste is often considered acceptable for up to 18 months if sealed (at which point most cheap supermarket brands seem to have their "best by" dates.)

I am afraid you will find your 40kg of coffee degrade in quality over time.

I drink that in a year. No big difference from start to finish.

That's 110g or one full pot of strong drip filter coffee per day. I think I typically drink 60g on a workday and 30g on a weekend day for an average of ~50g/day. I believe you, but you do drink quite a bit of coffee I must say!

That is about correct. The problem is that I am espresso drinker. I do have an espresso machine but whilst doing maintenance I broke a part I don't have the tools to fix. I have to put that much more coffee into the french press to get a similar 'feel good' result. One day I will fix the espresso machine!
