Storage Instructions
Temperature: Store at cool room temperature (15-20°C / 59-68°F); avoid temperatures above 25°C
Container: Use dark glass bottles or food-grade plastic containers; avoid metal containers (especially iron/copper) that accelerate oxidation
Light: Keep in a dark place or use opaque packaging; light exposure causes rapid oxidation and rancidity
Air Exposure: Seal tightly after each use; minimize headspace in containers to reduce oxidation
Shelf Life: 12-18 months unopened; 6-12 months after opening if stored properly
Refrigeration: Not recommended—may cause cloudiness but doesn't extend shelf life significantly
Signs of Spoilage: Bitter or paint-like odor, darkening color, or rancid taste—do not consume if present
