In the fridge, but I don't even bother with the ziploc bag. I used to store it in the pantry until the day I opened one up (fresh from the store) and it was crawling with some kind of larvae. Now I inspect it carefully at the store and put it in the fridge as soon as I get home.

I keep it all in the freezer -- whole wheat, ap, rice, bread.

This sounds like the easiest solution. You don't have to transfer it into a separate container - just put the whole bag in a ziplock. The only issue for me is that we don't have tons of fridge space, so I hate to give up fridgle space for flour!

A plastic container with rubber seal rings. I think it's from Ikea.

Air tight container in the cabinet unless it's whole wheat- that goes in the freezer.

Plastic supposedly air-tight canister in the cupboard. Flour I don't use that frequently I store in a plastic ziplock in the freezer.

I used to be cavalier about storage of flour and other such foodstuffs. Then we went on our honeymoon a few years ago and came home to a terrible case of flour beetles, that had spread to all of our food. We dealt with it for months. It was terrible. The ONLY stuff that stayed safe was the stuff we stored in oxo canisters, like this: http://www.amazon.com/OXO-Rectangle-2-Quart-Storage-Container/dp/B000VJ7C2E/ref=sr_1_24?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1346548563&sr=1-24&keywords=oxo
They are pricey, but store things more safely than in any other canister or container we had.

I got a plastic canister instead of plastic bag, fwiw.

That method is A-OK!
Sometimes, like that time I lived in a roach infested apartment, I kept it like that in the fridge.
If you are going to go through it faily quickly, a cannister on the counter works, too.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I'm new to baking.
I have just been keeping in the paper bag it comes in and putting that bag in a plastic bag, but there has to be a better way?
