making/freezing pizza dough

I've been seeing the posts on pizza dough recipes and decided to order tipo 00 flour. I got the flour last week. My question is can you freeze leftover dough, and if so, is it as good as fresh? I am thinking about making some to freeze for future use. Can the dough be made in a bread maker with good results?

Most reports say that you can freeze without any negative results. My recipe just makes enough for one crust, so I can't tell you from personal experience, even thought that is the flour that I use.

We freeze ours just find for about a month in ziplock freezer bags. Freeze the dough ball alone first to prevent sticking then remove from ziploc when ready for use & just defrost in a deep bowl coated with olive oil, cover with plastic and go into a rise from there. We take it out in the morning and then it's ready by dinner.

BeecaveKitchen Neat tip. Thanks. I always oiled the dough well before the freezer bag. But I will try you method next time.
krobertsmsn I usually double the recipe and freeze what we don't need after the dough has risen. It takes very little time to defrost, and doesn't impact flavor by much.
