I have stored in my pantry with no problems the temp. is between 72*-80* my yogurt has been as good ever. I am not sure if this is a correct way of storing.

In the frig or freezer! Much longer life in the freezer. Don't forget you can always fill ice trays with some of your yogurt, cover with saran to keep out odors and keep clean. Then use 2-3 cubes to incubate another batch of milk into wonderful yogurt. Just gets a bit more tart each time you do this.

I found a very large glass container with a screw top lid and store them in that. Storing them in the fridge or freezer is also effective.

I tried storing it out in the open, and wrapped in a paper towel inside a ziplock in the fridge. The one in the fridge stays fresher longer, but goes soft very quickly once removed. So I store the smaller pieces in the fridge for later use, and leave the larger pieces in a paper bag or a bowl and use those first.

I keep it in the plastic bag. I have a few different breads in there at any time. I do not know if it affects how long it stays fresh.

Yes, no problem with storage. We saved the original box and keep it there when not using it.

I don't know for sure, but I store UNOPENED packets in the pantry. After one is opened I keep it in the refrigerator.

In small print on the container the instructions are to store in a cool, dry place, best if refrigerated. Hope this helps. I really recommend this product. It has helped me immensely. LS

It is stored in a plastic wrapping...if you leave it in there, in the cardboard envelope if comes in, in a cool place out of direct sunlight, the image will last for quite a while.

Unused packets store as long as you want but used, I'd probably not keep 'em around for too long.

If u want the best results, u will refrigerate. These r live cultures and the result is amazing. If your traveling for a short time, it,s ok, but as soon as u reach destination refrigerate. I take mine every day after breakfast, then I dont have to worry. There is a expiration date on every box. I just purchased again, so mine is 4/2016. If I purchase locally, they refrigerate, if I order from Amazon, they do not so I refrigerate immediately upon receipt.

I store mine in the freezer in airtight containers. Works OK, and it should prevent all nasty critters. Mine hasn't gotten soggy or anything after a few months of this.BTW, I recommend NOT buying this much masa unless you're sure that your needs are awfully high. I'm regretting buying so much. 50 pounds is way more than I expected.

I keep them sealed in the bag they arrive in. It has a Ziploc seal. I usually store them in a drawer.

It's stored right now, although I plan to get it out next week. I remember it being nice and smooth, but not too certain. I'll try to pull it out tomorrow to see and will correct this if it's not suitable.

I keep it in a tightly sealed glass container in a cabinet. I think the three main things to consider are to keep it tightly sealed, keep it in a dark place, and keep it away from heat.

Best storage is Keep the box, or cover with an old blanket. We have really enjoyed our table for large numbers at dinner as well as games and puzzles.

You can but it depends on how fast you will using it. The unopened pkg can be stored in the pantry but once its open its better if you store the yeast in the mason jars in the fridge or freezer.

I would suggest keeping it in the frig if you can't use within six months. That is how I store mine.
