The Company that does this freezing thing is Terroir. But they freeze the beans at -40 F, certainly colder than most home freezers can attain.
That being said, someone over at the Green Coffee Cooperative has experimented with freezing his greens for limited periods of time and found no appreciable difference, frozen or not.
Like the above poster said, these beans last a good long time as it is. Lets say you had some outstanding beans that you wanted to "put away" for a special occasion years from now, it might be a good idea . . . but youre liable to find supplies of as good (or better!) coffee between now and then.
Put them in breathable bags and use them in a year. Yeah, thats the ticket: Ive got about 300 lbs in my stash now, so maybe Id better look into that freezing thing. :
