Agree on three days to off gas from a fresh roast. Had a Behmor when I lived in the country and there were no local roasters.
Now with plenty of roasters near by, I generally order online for non-specialty dark roasts, or grab some at Safeway. I drink mostly cappuccino and the dairy seems to drown out subtle flavors of the high-falutin special blends or single origins.
I hate the widespread move to 12 ounce bags, but the cheaper stuff I buy comes in two pound bags.
