Are there any special tips on wrapping coffee beans for freezing?

Ryan Jacobs at INeedCoffee.com prescribes extra precautions to protect your coffee beans from moisture and possible freezer odors: "I would suggest keeping the beans in the original packaging. Then place the package in a zippered storage bag...If you do not have a zippered bag, you can wrap the beans using plastic wrap. I use even more layers! After this initial wrapping, I place the coffee bean bundle in another bag. Again, wrap the bag with plastic wrap, then I cover it with foil."
 
Got all that? Coffee beans in their original package, which is put in a zippered bag, which is put in another bag, which is wrapped in plastic, which is wrapped in foil. Personally, we're thinking that if you're awake enough to unwrap all that, you don't actually need the coffee, but the point is coffee put in the freezer should be tightly wrapped with nonporous material.

Thanks for the tips. I would really want to try this at home. Been hearing about this from friends and would love to try it. I'm also reading some Coffee Makers Reviews because I want to buy a new one.
