Quillene, it’s best to use everything you squeeze while it is fresh, but if you can’t, freezing it should be okay for a week or two, though the resulting milk will be a bit different. Also, the thicker cream will rise to the top of the container before it freezes so when you defrost, you will see a marked difference between the thicker cream and the coconut “water”… Glad you enjoy the site, feel free to browse the archives as there are 1,600 or so posts in there…

Good afternoon, Marketman!

I just stumbled onto your blogsite and have been hooked! Your website is a godsend!

Quick question: After extracting the EVCO and coconut milk, if I extracted more than what I intended to use, can I freeze the EVCO and coconut milk AND for how long would you say these will be safe to store.

I would like to try and use fresh ingredients now after visiting your site, and just turn to the canned / bottled ones when really really pressed for time. :)

Keep up the good work! This site is the perfect answer to new foodies and cook-wanabees like me. No more Bridget-Jones nuked dinners. Yay!

I remember back home, my aunt would buy some freshly grated coconut (what do u call that loud machine they use to grate the coconut?); extract all the juice/milk, then she would boil it until it becomes coconut oil, she then cool it down and apply it in her hair/scalp; massage her hair a bit, let it stand and wash. Viola that’s her instant “hot oil treatment” ! hehehe
Her sister-in-law will then make some “bukayo” ouf of the left over grated coconut! How cool is that!
