We
package extract to order in food grade plastic
vacuum pouches (except for the 12# buckets),
and encase the pouches in a sturdy cardboard
box. You
may also order extract by the pound in any
quantity from over 3# up to 60#. Extract that
is vacuum
packaged has an excellent shelf life of up
to 12 months. Extract is best used fresh, but
will
store
well for months, especially if kept cool. If
stored for long periods of time, the extract
that is packaged
in buckets or pails may develop surface mold.
Because of the density of the extract and the
high sugar
content, the extract is still usable once this
occurs as the mold cannot grow below the surface,
and any bacteria present will be killed in
the boil. All of our extract is certified organic
under the USDA National Organic Program by
California
Certified Organic Farmers.
