SweetMarias awesome website recommends keeping the beans in a glass Mason jar with the lid on loosely for 12 hours then storing airtiight.

Is it abot 24 hours before the beans are ready for the mill???
The first 12 hours is when the most C02 is released but it keeps degassing for sometime. You are not going to get a mason jar to explode with the pressure so some burp the jar, others leave it cracked or open. I like the one way valve tins from SM's personally.
