storm Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I have a couple of gallon bottles of grooming bio oil I cant see a use by date on it. Anyone know how long that last for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essentialdog Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 It is hard to determine unless you know the ingredients. Some oils go rancid after 6 months and some last longer. It depends on its preservative system, ingredients used and the type of preservative system. The average shelf life for a commercial product is usually 2 years. If you could give me a list of the ingredients on the bottle I'll be able to give you a more definitive answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandgrubber Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Shelf life of organic substances is highly dependent on temperature. Most oils are good for years if you keep them in a cold fridge; many will go off in a month or two in warm weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megan_ Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 It also depends on the container it is stored in as oxygen exposure turns oils rancid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
