Uh. desperation is the mistress of much knowledge.
You're not alone in your findings of opened, old starbucks beans.
Just don't make the mistake of going out and getting fresh beans and expecting that same flavor! (shudder)
All iI can figure is, there's something that happens in the oxidation process that makes them taste not only palatable, but pretty darn good. You want to ldet them sit for at LEAST 8 months though. Preferably over a year.
