I was not asking for advice(no offense), but rather just curious if any of you age your beans? It may be different for me because I purchase my beans already roasted and bagged.

I would guess that many home roasters just let the beans sit out for a couple days?
No offense taken - I misread your post, so my bad! In my experience, After a couple of weeks, it starts to lose its characteristics and start going stale. (I keep my coffee in one-way valved bags as well).
