You do not store the milk in the unit. You are supposed to use the supplied thermos to store the milk in a refrigerator when not in use (which you then just plug into the machine when foaming milk). Frankly, I stopped using the insulated thermos and just use the supplied longer milk tube to pull the milk from a regular milk container. I did this because the thermos a) doesn't hold that much milk if you are using making more than say two latte/cappuccinos and b) I find that the thermos clogs too often (resulting in big bubbles, etc.) and is just another thing that has to be cleaned. But the unit does foam the milk very easily (and produces very nice foam) and it does so without moving your cup. You do not store the milk in the unit.

Hi. It would stay fresh if you put it with a cool pack in an insulated lunch bag. It will not stay cold by virtue of the bottle and the rubber around it. Also, specifically, because your putting milk in it, you should know that the bottle needs to be kept up right. The rubber cap, though it does help keep the liquid in, is not a sealed cap.

I have not tried storing in fridge, but I do believe it will still be good. I hope this helps.

Short answer: Yes.Stainless steel is not significantly reactive in the presence of milk solids[1]. You should be able to store warm milk in this thermos. It will stay warm for several hours. Regular cleaning would be necessary, but no more difficult that cleaning milk off of anything else.Hope you have a nice winter season!

Sort of. I have to freeze them flat first, and then slide them in at a sort of diagonal. An ice cube container works just as well, if not better, to be honest. The only bags that work well with this system are the First Years milk storage bags.

I freeze the bag flat at the back of the container then move it to the front to stand up, theres no way the milk will lay flat if you store the bag upright immediately, it will gather at the bottom of the bag, even when I use the plastic insert. I use Medela bags

I use mine to store pumped breast milk, which is warm when I put it in, so I use a small ice pack too. I imagine it would do a good job if the dairy was already cold. It will also depend on the temp outside the unit... if it's really warm, I think you'll need an ice pack, too.

There was no info on storage so I left mine tightly sealed in a cabinet. I know the ones in pre made boxes are shelved so that's what I did... I can't imagine putting it in the fridge would be a bad idea though, so whatever you are comfortable with..

I suppose you could as long as its very snug against your breast at all times and as long as you dont mind the milk not being refrigerated right away. I dont do it because i toss and turn alot & I think it would leak out.

As far as storing your milk? I would think any kind. I used the ones from target and it worked well in the fridge but I never froze my milk since I had very little. Hope this helps.

they come with the lid for the nipples and the bottle cap I think you would be able to store breast milk in it

As a microbiologist, my answer is yes - any foodstuffs should be refrigerated after opening the container

You can pump milk into the liners directly. Moreover, you can store your milk in the liners with porte-sac.
