Taking proper care of your herb infused products is vital to ensure a long shelf life and better potency.

If stored properly, tinctures or infusions have an incredibly long shelf life, even months or years.

Infusions will stay potent far longer than fresh flower or edibles that can mold.

How should I store infusions?

All c_binoids degrade under heat, light or air whether it’s a tincture, cooking oil or lotion.

Your mission is to control these elements to protect your goods.

Think cool, dark and sealed.  Preferably use a container made of dark glass and an air tight lid.  If using a mason jar, be sure to store it in the dark.  Ultraviolet light or heat quickly degrades c_binoids.

Avoid plastic, if possible, especially for tinctures.  Plastic notoriously leaches into your infusions and may even alter the flavor.

Storing C_butter or C_oils

The refrigerator or freezer is ideal for storing c_butter or infused oils.  Potency nor quality will be compromised.  (But never store raw herb in the refrigerator as damp conditions may cause mold to grow.)

Infusions lasts up to 3 weeks in a refrigerator or around 6 months in the freezer.  Fats can still go rancid even in the freezer.

Some people enjoy freezing c_butter in ice cube trays for easy gradual use over time.  Take one out at a time for your cooking enjoyment.

Storing Tinctures

Brown or blue dropper bottles are preferred for storing tinctures.  Tinctures made from glycerin tend to be more perishable so refrigerator or freezer storage should be considered.

Labeling & Safety

In the haste to be done, many may skip this step.  However, taking a quick minute to label your infusions will greatly help you later.  Date and note the contents.

Also, clearly label it as T_C to avoid unwanted problems.  Keep everyone safe.

Following all these guideline will help protect your herb infusions and extend their shelf life.
