How long can WVO be stored?
What is the longest WVO can be stored?
I would like to know if it can be stored for a while before I make any attempts at collecting. Before purchasing/or making any kind of processor, I want to be sure I can collect a substantial amount of WVO. |
I've held it over for about 6 months with no problems. The Key to storing WVO is to filter out as much of the organics and water as you can, and keep it in sealed containers.
|
Ok, I will devise a good filter system before longterm storage.
That shouldn't cost too much if I don't go through with the plans. |
If you are going to store for a long time you should:
1. Not store in metal tanks unless they have a non metalic coating. 2. Keep the oil as cool as possible (don't store in the sun). 3. If possible a head of dry nitrogen to eliminate atmospheric oxygen. |

Hot VO has a tendency to polymerize and that you do not want to happen.
It would be best if you fabricated some sort of shade. |
I am.
They are called mesquites, and they are taking their sweet time to grow and provide shade. |
I grew up in Tucson and live in South Texas.
I know all about those mesquites OUCH!! I recently ruined 2 chainsaw chains cutting one up for wood for my smoker. |
I got the chileans without the thorns.
And they do make food taste good, much better than propane . |
