Human: How can I store brewed coffee? I like to drink iced coffee. Can I store it in the refrigerator like iced tea or will it go bad faster?

Assistant: Yes, you can store brewed coffee in the refrigerator like iced tea.  However, as a general rule, it’s really best to drink coffee within a few days of brewing, as it starts to lose flavor after that point.  That said, if you brew coffee and refrigerate it soon after making it, you should be able to keep it for a week or even two before it’s no longer fresh.

Assistant: Coffee is actually very sensitive to temperature.  It should definitely be stored in an airtight container in a fridge, but if it’s at room temperature, it will probably last a couple weeks.  After that, it will start to taste stale.  If the coffee is stored in the fridge though, it should be able to last for several weeks; just make sure to regularly take the container out to allow the coffee to defrost a bit, to allow the flavors to fully develop.
