freeze my whole hops in bulk or single use packages?

[trub quaffer]

I just got 7lbs of whole hops today from hopsdirect:rockin: but now I need to figure out what to do with them. If I freeze them in the 1lb bags they came in, am I going to be dealing with a solid 16oz hopcicle when I go to use them or are they pretty easy to divide out at that point? I'd like to just freeze them in bulk and divide each of the different strains into unit of use packages when I open the bulk packages, just don't know if that's the best way to handle them or not.

Hops are so dry they do not form ice blocks, so you can freeze as-is.

Thanks, thats what I was hoping.
