does the oil need to be refridgerated after opening?

The oil is high in antioxidants and stores well in a cool dry place, about a year. Look at the expiration date, if you will get close to it or over by the time it will be spent, refrigerate now. Rule of thumb is you double remaining expiration time every 10 degC cooler than room for factory sealed foods. I recently had rotated a can of emergency refrigerated tuna exp. 2007 (rule of thumb extended it over 7yrs) and was delicious. If the oil will not be used for an extended period and you do have refrigeration room, why not extend the expiration and freshness by keeping it cooler?

This is fish oil. It can go bad. I refrigerate mine after opening, but it starts out viscous at room temp and gets even thicker when refrigerated, so you have to thaw it out for a while. It's really fishy too - go figure.

I keep mine refrigerated to prevent oxidation with exposure to air and transfer it to smaller storage vessels,as the lid cannot be tightened, but it is such a wonderful tasting oil, it is worth the effort for storage.

No, but it's new. People in the reviews claiming that they thought the oil was expired said so bc the oil wasn't room temperature. When the oil gets cool, it solidifies. It confused some ppl into thinking it was bad. It's good as new once you run the bittle under warm water for a minute, or set under a lamp, or something. It's worth the hassle in the winter! :)I've had the same bottle now for about a year, and it's still good. I hope his helps.

Refrigerated after opening in a sealed bag. It should last until you use it up.......

In my opinion it should not make any difference. But once you open it does need to be refrigerated.

Mine was rancid upon delivery. In my option, it's a gamble as to how old the oil will be that you get. Assuming you get a fresh bottle, keep it in the fridge always. Go to the fridge to apply, then put it back in.

It is an oil and would last longer if refrigerated. Not sure on shelf life, but i figure a few months. I store mine in fridge and put a small amount in my bathroom for using.

It doesn't have to be, but the bottle says "For best results, refrigerate after opening". I don't refrigerate mine :)

From all the reading I have done, yes you should refrigerate it once it is opened.

The bottle says this, no matter the size: Refrigerate after opening. Best if used within 3 months after opening.

No. Only refrigerate after opening. However, I like them better cold, but it's not necessary.

No, it does not need to be refrigerated after opening. It takes a couple of months to use up a 32 ounce bottle stored at room temperature with no problems

yes it has been refrigerated, but the oil has been used many months ago. I do remember that the pressing date was within a few days of delivery. Sorry i couldn't be of more help.
