  • Powder shelf life

    I am about to place my first powder order, but I'm not real clear on what the shelf life is... I had planned on storing the powder inside the house, in Mason jars. I thought they would provide the best protection against moisture.

    Are there any other considerations, and what could I reasonably expect for shelf life?
    I would assume the different types of powders have different shelf lives?

    Thanks!!

    I agree with Harleydad.

    Welcome to the forum. Be sure to post pics when you get started!

    Best of luck.

          Hey!!

          Thanks to everyone for the warm greeting and sound advice!

          I checked out the links, which helped tremendously, and also talked to Matthew at PSS.

          I am putting the final touches on my order (dang, even with good prices, it adds up fast!!) and will have my powder by the end of the week!! Then the fun begins!!

          I am seriously reconsidering the Mason jars, though.....

          As was so aptly pointed out, there are much better uses for Mason jars!!

          Well, I do have quite a few, so maybe.......

          Anyway, thanks again guys!!
