Avoid temperature fluctuations, so DO NOT refrigerate extracts; condensation can introduce moisture and dilute the product.

Use clean utensils when measuring to prevent contamination.

Maintain original packaging when possible, as dark glass bottles protect against light exposure better than clear containers.
