How long will this hold. I'm looking for long term storage. I know oils don't hold very long, but I am curious how long I could keep it.

Last time I had over a year and it was still good, I use a lot on my Lithuanian Organic Rye Bread.

It has a strong wood like smell. I like it, but you want your oils to smell like the things they are pressed or distilled from. If they don't have a strong smell I would question the quality. Now I don't think it needs to be refregerated but should be kept in a cool dark place for it to last longer. It comes in a dark blue bottle to help keep it longer. I keep mine in my bathroom closet. No problems...I hope this help :)

You can keep it for years if it last that long. It is the best vanilla extract out there. Enjoy!!

our bottles have always been ok and we have never had a problem with them. this is a quality product by a quality company. i would not be afraid to use it even if it were well past the date on the bottle. the oil will start changing in its taste and that would be my only reason to think about not using it. if it is in the refrigerator it will last a long time. expiration dates are mostly a signal to move product off the self so that it will still be of full value. these dates are mostly to satisfy some government agency.

Think about a panof used oil sitting on the stove after you have used it. Same thing, not convenient for me to refigerate. It is suggested you keep oil in airtight container, I have covered with saran wrap when Iknew I would be using again in a couple days. Usually just pour it back in the bottle can be used 6-9 times before I toss it.

The oil is high in antioxidants and stores well in a cool dry place, about a year. Look at the expiration date, if you will get close to it or over by the time it will be spent, refrigerate now. Rule of thumb is you double remaining expiration time every 10 degC cooler than room for factory sealed foods. I recently had rotated a can of emergency refrigerated tuna exp. 2007 (rule of thumb extended it over 7yrs) and was delicious. If the oil will not be used for an extended period and you do have refrigeration room, why not extend the expiration and freshness by keeping it cooler?

We have also tried this, and left the oil in the fryer for about more than ten days and reused it several times during that period and no problem has occured. I am not a health expert and I do not want to cause any problems for anyone. All I am saying is we have done it and have not experienced any problems yet.

The actual "shelf life" I couldn't tell you. I had one rattling around in my tool box for a little over 3 years before I finally used it. Butane lasts forever as far as I know. As long as you check them from time to time for leaks they should last for as long as you want them too. I can tell you they are very durable, banging around with the rest of my tools probably wasn't the greatest idea if it got punctured but it held up fine. Just store them in a cool dry place away from any heat, put them in plastic bags to keep dirt out of them. They should last for many years. I hope this helps.

I have used approximately 70-80 drops and still have a little less then half a bottle of oil left. Hope that helps:) I bought two bottles would rather have extra and not be short and product is very affordable.

I've only had this oil for about 3 months, so I'm not sure what the shelf life is, trying going online for your answer.

It can start to spoil. I bought several and the later ones smelled a tad. A friend suggested refrigerating all but the one in use to extend shelf life, just like any oil.

I prefer storing the oil in glass, especially dark glass. I use the 2 liters in a month and often store portions of it in different dark glass containers.

Do not buy this to store essential oils in. They won't fit, you'd have to lay them sideways, adn the whole unit stunk of varnish/stain. I wish I wouldn't have bought it. You would be better off buying a box that was made for essential oils and store them in the fridge if possible. You could look at the Mountian Rose website or www.apothecary-shoppe.com) The unit looks nice on the shelf, but I haven't decided what to use it for. Best wishes.

If neem oil is stored in a cool, dark place it will last for at least 12 months. However, it will start to smell rank if it's gone bad sooner, per my personal experience. It looses effectiveness also after about 6-12 months...

I guess I am late on a reply. But I have been using for a while and has been stored for 6 months without issues (moderate conditions). I wouldn't want to store fuel for longer than 10 months anyway. When I get that long something is wrong. (Just dump in car and buy more gas). But using this during the winter in NJ works great!

The manufacturer may best be able to answer this question. I'm just a consumer but I store my oil in a cabinet - a dry, cool place because I use my oil relatively quickly (about a couple months for 4 ounces.) I use it on my face, neck, chest, a bit for my hair and my hands. If you think it may be many months before you use up the bottle, then maybe the refrigerator would extend the life of the product. Assuming oils that are natural do have a life span that may be a good idea. Again, a quick email to the manufacturer might be of more help. Cheers!

I leave mine out and it does say on the bottle you CAN refrigerate but do not, no issues. I have been using this oil for about 2 years with no problems. I believe there are 3 sizes of bottles.
