Default Whether or not my coffee beans are ground or whole, should I freeze them?

Why or Why not?

If you can't use up your whole bean coffee in 2 weeks, then you should freeze it. Coffee stored this way will last about a month, maybe two. Wrap it up in several layers of plastic wrap, or use an airtight container with as much air removed as you can manage. Once your beans have been frozen and thawed, do not refreeze. You don't even have to thaw them out before grinding. Frozen beans will grind up just fine.

Don't bother to freeze ground coffee...it goes stale within 2 weeks anyway.

I would not, because moisture makes coffee bitter. I mean moisture in storing, not when you make the drink.

Store coffee in a lightproof, airtight container at room temperature. Refrigeration/freezing is good for food, but not for coffee. Keep it out of the fridge/freezer.
