I think it would depend on how long it would take you to go through it. If you are like me, it doesn't take long. :-) We refrigerate ours, after opening, and like it that way, but I don't think it is necessary if it is stored in a cool, dry place. We have made our own, as well, but since we go through it within a month after opening, and keep it refrigerated, we never have an issue. If you don't refrigerate it, and go through it slowly, I would just keep it stored out of direct sunlight, and keep an eye on it and trust your nose. Hardening in the refrig has not been an issue for us, but, again.....we go through it, quickly! I think it would depend on how long it would take you to go through it.

Do not refrigerate it tends to harden. It can be stored at room temperature out of direct sunlight. Like in a pantry. You can freeze unopened jars.

Yes, this product needs to be refrigerated. Says so right on the bottle " Keep Refrigerated". If you purchase this product on Amazon and the listing says "Fulfilled by Amazon" it has not been refrigerated. It was kept in and shipped from Amazon's warehouse. The response from Green Pharmacy is incorrect as are the instructions on the Empirical Labs website that say "refrigerate after opening" according to Dave at Emperical labs. According to Dave, he has asked his web people to change the wording on the web site and that takes time but he has put the necessary paper work in to have it changed.

The jar says refrigerate after opening, so that's what I do. It will keep for many months.

If it hasn't been opened, you don't have to refrigerate it. Once opened, you're supposed to.

Grocery stores don't refrigerate them because the product doesn't need to be refrigerated until after the bottle has been opened. So, refrigerate after opening. Before opening, feel free to store it in the pantry.

The bottle doesn't say it needs to be refrigerated. We leave ours at room temp and haven't had any problems.

I keep about eight containers in my storage room which is about 70 degrees all year around, I don't think you need to refrigerate the product even after it has been opened. I keep the opened container in my kitchen cabinet.

Yes the bottle says to refrigerate after opening. But I would make sure you sit it on something, I use a upside down plastic lid, because it will stain if it gets on something. It also has an expiration date that is usually quite long.

I refrigerate it after opening but when I travel it's obviously not staying cold and it's still as good & effective. So does it "need" to be refrigerated, preferably YES, but a few day's w/o refridgeration wont hurt it based on my many years of using this wonderful supplement. Hope this helps.
