STORAGE
|
|
|
Being perishable, all vegetable oil should be
protected from exposure to heat, light and oxygen.
To maximize shelf life, do not break the container
seal until ready to utilize the oil. Once the
container is opened, the protective Nitrogen
blanket will be lost and the oil should then be
utilized as quickly as possible. Once opened, keep
the container tightly closed when not in use. We
recommend that containers be stored at cool
temperatures, out of direct sunlight and away from
boilers or other heat emitting equipment. Direct
exposure to natural or artificial light (especially
fluorescent) is very detrimental to the stability
of vegetable oil and should be avoided.
