Casing Storage Question

[getbent]

I bought some salted casings that are sealed in a bag from Stuffers Supply Company in BC Canada a couple of weeks ago and forgot to refrigerate them.

Will they still be useable for a run this week, or should I buy new ones...Stuffers is closed until the 4th and am hoping to shoot a batch this weekend.

Thanks,

Guy

Ps Love the site...the info is staggering...

Yes they are still good. get them soaking in water and refrigerate. Change the water frequently especially if they are packed in salt.

Thanks boykjo...wasn't sure as they are not vacuum sealed and have been sitting in the bag they came home in...

Follow his advice, his casing process is spot on!
