Gretings Alexander,
As the only 1% milk user in my household, I purchase 1/2 gal at the time, &
use only on cereal about 3 days a week. It usually passes the Exp date while
I still have almost a qt. My granddaddy's name was Burns (about as Scotch as
you can get) & I was raised during the Depression and learned to NOT WASTE
anything; especially food. I added an ounce of 10-20ppm CS soon after
opening the 1/2 gal & it stays fresh until I use the last drop.
Also, the City water lines were broken last year & we were ordered to boil
the city water to use safely. I filled 4 1 gal jugs, added 1 ounce CS,
turned over to mix & we stayed well using this water until the City okayed a
return to using City water.
Good luck to you with your experiments--hope each one will continue to read,
ask, learn & share with the rest of us so we can become better informed &
more helpful to others who have problems in which we might be helpful.

  Subject: Re: CS>C.S. and Coffee Creamer Half and Half Spoilage...


  I think a TBS would do just as well, that is all I put into a quart of
mild or cream and it has kept the contents fresh, IIRC up to a month past
the sell by date (in the fridge).

    Request to All... Will others please repeat this test up to point of
spoilage at least... I'm getting suspicious that the C.S. will keep the half
& half spoilage free almost indefinitely ???

    I will also begin test of Creamer with C.S. at room temperature...
