Storing pellet hops

[CaptAwol]

I've searched on here and Google and not got answers so looking for opinions

I've just acquired 2 x 5kg of T90 hops, cascade and admiral, foil bags but not vacuum packed.
When I open these in next day or so I intend to vacuum pack into lot's of 150g packs, it's a mixed opinion about freezing or just fridge, am tempted just to go for fridge, I'll probably use a about 450g a month sometimes twice that, so any opinions on storage

If there is room in the freezer then freeze them.

The pack was probably flushed with nitrogen.
I vacuum packed mines, and freezed them.

Removing oxygen (either by flushing with CO2/nitrogen or vac packing) helps keep them fresh.
Lowering the temp helps (fridge, then freezer) helps keep them fresh.

Doing both helps twice as much.

Definitely freeze them you have 10 months worth.

For curiousity sake, how are you using 450g of cascade and admiral monthly or twice a month? That's a lot of beer.

I brew 60l batches, 150g whirlpool/hopstand then 2 days 150g dry hop
