Funky is right. Like another poster I use film containers (multiple). It does get better in there, providing it still has a little moisture I find that the flavor often gets more fruity from hanging out in its own gases. I lost one during my last move and when I found it the city was bare so I was in luck. It was in there for about 2 months or so and it did dry a little (they are not that air tight) but it did not degrade :stoned:
