Product Safety |
 |
 |
 |
|
While an edible oil, crude oils
are not intended for consumption without further processing.
It is recommended that further processing be done to insure
consistency in finished products. |

Storage / Shelf-Life |
 |
 |
 |
|
Prolonged storage of crude oils
should be kept to a minimum to insure quality. Storage should
be in tanks with adequate agitation to insure that settling
of gums and waxes does not occur. Heating is acceptable to facilitate
further processing. Maximum recommended temperature for storage
is 125 °F. |
