I was just thinking of ziplocks for now. I'm a coffee roaster by profession, and I'm just using the hops for experiments such as hopped cold brew for now. So I guess my question would be how do I prolong the life of hops for as long as possible without buying a vacuum sealer. If I decide to...

Thanks for the info. What about an airtight container in the freezer? Can I keep what I'm not using in there and just take it out as needed? And do I need to let it thaw before using?

Quick question from someone who knows nothing about beer, much less hops. How long will whole hops last after I open the bag? I believe they are dried. They are not frozen, and are vacuum sealed in mylar. Thanks in advance!
