How long does the potato keeper keep potatoes fresh or do you think keeping them cooler would be better?

I agree with the other ladies.... a month. We keep our house around 64-65 degrees. Hope that helps!

About a month in Texas. Cooler climate might have longer times, but in southeast Texas, about a month.

Depends upon your zone. Supposedly perennial hardy to zone 7a which I'm in, but I don't leave mine outside. Tubers are cheap enough so that you could give some a try this year and see how they overwinter if you're in zone 7+. They want 70-75 degrees during the day, 15-20 degrees cooler at night. They do die back a bit in summer when the heats on (they're just resting) and come back in fall. Mine do better in partial shade, the leaves just burn out in full sun. A bit finicky about watering - lightly damp all the time seems best.

I have not tried this but based on how long it took to melt cheese- way too long!!! I would say that it can only keep potatoes warm.

I like to keep all dog food cool and tightly covered. In winter the porch is a refrigerator for me. I think since Honest kitchen is dried so it should keep well as long as it doesn't get moisture in it.

i'm not sure...i've tried various settings and it depends on how many potatoes you are baking........most times if i'm in a hurry i'll just use a zip-lock bag...

Keep in fridge until it gets to around 70. It's suppose to take 45 days . Depending on climate sometimes longer.. Very cool to see....

It is a bit slow but does the trick. I've made a very large quantity of potatoes without issue. Hope this helps.

I store it in the fridge normally in the original bagand it keeps very well. As long as you keep it in an airtight container, cool/cold and dry it should be alright.

This will last a very long time....After you use it for the first time you must keep it refrigerated....I freeze mine and until I am ready to use it again

I place my keeper in the refrigerator when I know my house is going to be to warm, and take it out first thing, otherwise the butter does warm and slips into the water which is no big deal. I live in the lower south so we have humidity issues!

that depemds on how you keep them, mre's are not long term food storage, buying a ton of them and keeping them in your closet is stupid media talk, the experation on these all depends on the climate they are kept in, a few months to a year, i did not look at a date on the box if there was one, if you want long term buy wise compony or mountain house

The structure should be good for a couple of days. water temp shouldn't make a difference. Check with the manufacturer on storing in the fridge.

Average 20-25 years. Cooler temperature storage will extend shelf life. 55-60 degree basement storage will give it 30 years

I do whole potatoes in under 30 min. But I would not recommend doing to much else it will end up shooting out the air pressure hole. Making huge mess and possibly screwing up the whole machine

I can't answer that question.....I can state that the fresh stuff that comes in a bottle and is meant to be kept refrigerated is arguably better for you (do a google search and you'll find out why).
