imho Keep your beans in the freezer if you must but not necessary if you drink as much coffee as I do :-) A pound barely lasts a week around here. You should let cold beans warm a bit before grinding and definitely warm before brewing. You want to be sure to release all the flavour. If the hot water has to warm cold coffee first, it may not be able to extract all the flavour - for espresso this is critical.
Just went out and bought some of those freezer bags with the vacuum pump and they seem to be working just fine. We now keep the beans in the wine cabinet. Nice and cool and dark. We go through a pound in a week as well!
