Storage & tools

Store in a cool, dry pantry (under 21 °C / 70 °F) away from direct sunlight.
Use airtight containers to keep humidity out — dry ingredients gain 1–2 % mass in humid air.
Rotate stock: first in, first out, even when the product looks unchanged.
Check best-by dates; potency can fade before the product looks old.

Seal tightly; refrigerate or freeze after opening to keep strength.
