I purchase organic milk bulk and want to store and freeze in this jar. Will it break?

These jars should be fine to freeze in, though I have not attempted to freeze anything in them yet. Make sure you research/Google how to properly freeze goods in a glass jar as any glass jar can be broken through the freeze/thaw process. Sorry I could not give you direct experience with freezing goods in these jars, but hopefully someone will be able to. http://lifeyourway.net/how-to-freeze-food-in-glass-jars/

Yes, the container is a hard plastic (not very flexible in a good way). I stack stuff on it. I have many lock & lock containers at home and they have fallen out of my upper freezer many times without breaking (however, I wouldn't recommend that with eggs).

I've frozen broth in quart jars and didn't have a problem - as long as there are no cracks in the jar, you leave a lot of space for expansion and you let the food cool first before putting it in the freezer you should be ok. I also just found this article: http://www.rootsimple.com/2013/02/how-to-freeze-food-in-canning-jars/

It is very thick material. I add ice to the bottle and keep in refrigerator . I haven't tried to freeze it though. I doubt that it would crack even if frozen

Yes, i always had problems with bottles breaking from multiple freezings. This one holds up great! I fill it 3/4 full and leave the lid off every night and it's ready to go the next day. I just ordered five more of these specifically for this reason

Yes I have placed this bottle in the freezer and it was not my intent to leave it in as long as I did ( overnight) as I had forgotten that I had placed it in my freezer to make my drink colder than it was. The bottle held up well. There were no cracks and the bottle retained it's shape after the frozen liquid melted. Thus far I am pleased with this purchase.

You can lock the mechanism that pushes the bag forward, so it won't smash the bags with the spring. That would allow you to store the non-frozen milk. I locked it in the freezer too.

I don't see why not, wish i had thought of that,(DUH) it was delicious, but went off before i could use it all!!!Things with a lot of fat in them usually freeze well. i had bought the milk from the same maker, but in very small carton, perfect! thought this was the same size as the milk, didn't read close.

As long as you don't have kids trying to rip the lid off, you'll be fine. I love this can. Have had it about 2 years now and can't imagine the plastic breaking as it is hard, thick plastic....not the soft plastic you often see on cheaper garbage cans. This can is expensive but worth every penny.

If you're making large quantities can't see why not as the container has an excellent seal. When we made starter we generally used 1 quart canning jars with caps on in the fridge as we made a small batch. Don't know anything about any reaction to the plastic as stated in a previous reply but I would follow up on that or the venting comment. One thing for sure, hope you have a large fridge as it takes up a large space.

Maybe for a day or two but the plastic (in my opinion) is not made for that and may crack. I would recommend actual milk freezer bags. I had to pump almost everything so i used A LOT of them and decided it was a lot of waste and switched to biodegradable plastic. They worked well, no freezer burn, and I didn't feel as horrible throwing all that plastic in the trash.

It is in a sealed bag preserved like it is canned. some oil in it. don't know if it would freeze well.

no problem, that's normal. I keep mine in the fridge and it's also solid, it's just because there is some coconut oil in the mix.

You could probably use dry ice to freeze it but I would keep a barrier like a towel between the dry ice and the plastic. Dry ice has a surface temp of minus 109 fare height, it might cause the container to become brittle. If you have dry ice you might forgo the blue ice.

Maybe. I never had that happen. I think the container would probably crack.

How about storing it in the freezer after you empty it? might get brittle though...

It must be partly due to the recipe. If there's too much water in the mixture, it will freeze solid. Sounds like you need more milk fat in the mixture.
