how long does the salt last in the container?

Um, how long does salt last in your kitchen cabinet, unless you pour it out? Forever. The only reason they tell you to buy more is so they can make more money off of gullible people. It doesn't stop being salt ever.

I think about a year. I've used mine several times (several times a day for a few days in a row), over a period of 9 months and it's still fine.

It holds about a tablespoon, so I probably fill mine about every two weeks. I just make sure that if I'm doing something like salting popcorn or cooking that I use the salt directly from the carton because otherwise you will be filling it up quite frequently.

It depends on how you are using it. I use it primarily in recipes so mine will last a couple of years. If you are using it straight out of the container, you need very little, so it still will last a long time.

Room temp is fine. My only suggestion would be to change the container, its made of heavy paper product and if it gets wet that could affect the salt.

Well it depend on how you 'store' it.. when you first open it, it's rather smooth, but if you let it 'dry' in the open.. it forms a thin layer of 'crust' as water dissolves the salt and eventually evaporates from it.. then u can use that as a 'scrub'. else.. it is smooth.

The container holds about 2tbs in the top two tiers and 3-4tbs in the bottom. I keep chipoltle salt in the second garlic salt in the top and kosher salt in the bottom The flavors don't come through but I don't use reg garlic salt I use garlic flake salt.

The cover is held closed by a magnet but it does not seal tightly shut. This is only for salt you are using all the time as you cook. The rest of the salt is in a sealed bag. I am using a sea salt which is damp to begin with. I live in a humid climate and if anything the salt dries out in the box. This is not a storage device more of a dispenser.

The package I got has an expiration date of May, 2029. Since it's pure salt and nothing else added, I wouldn't be afraid to keep it even past that date as long as it was properly stored and sealed.

If concerned you can back flush the tank before each use and recharge with salt. The manufacturer recommends back flushing every 6 months. Clean water sitting in the tank should not be a real issue for 20 days.

like probably 100. I spilt half of my first container and it still lasted for like 3 months or more

Don't know how soon you need the answer for this but I will be using a whole container this weekend at my granddaughters birthday party. The container we are currently using has lasted for quite a while but I haven't used it over and over at one time. Hopefully I can give you a definite answer Saturday.

I usually go through a jar in about a month and a half. It's been good that long. Previously I got a big gallon bucket of the same thing. And as long as it was refrigerated in an air tight bag it lasted over 8 months.

They each only holds about 3 tablespoons, but that amount lasts a surprisingly long time. I have to fill my pepper shaker every 4-6 weeks, but have only filled the salt shaker once in 4 months.

I agree it is very wet! My solution was to take it out of the plastic bag it was shipped in and spread it thinly over paper towels. I changed the paper towels each day for about 3 days. I then stored it in an airtight container. It works perfectly in my grinder now. Until the moisture dries from the salt, about the only way to apply it is by hand. Honestly I love this salt! It has an awesome flavor. I hope this helps.

not on mine either. however both salt and metallic lithium do not degrade if stored as directed. i have no problem concerning the expiration date.

I store my salt in a jar with a sealed lid. I have a FoodSaver and store mostly everything in jars with sealed lids. Plastic bags should be used as little as possible. My son keeps a little wooden container nearby to use when he's cooking. I've never had an issue with mold, most likely because the air has been removed.

it just sits on the top of the jar. I keep salt in mine and it seems to keep the salt dry.
