For how long is UHT milk good AFTER its opened?
- UHT (ultra high temperature) milk has a longer shelf life than regular milk, but not frig life. I know that on the side of the box it recommends after being open for 2 weeks it "expires". I went looking online to site my answer, but I only know from reading off the side of a box myself. I hope this helps. I'd throw it out personally.

My uncle left an unopened 3 litre carton of milk out of the fridge. 4.25 hours later I found it and put it in the fridge. Will it be safe to drink?
The rate at which something spoils is much like any other chemical reaction- it is temperature dependent. For typical reactions, a rule of thumb is that the rate doubles for every 10 C increase in temperature. Let’s assume your fridge is about 5 C, and the room is 25 C. So the reaction rate has quadupled. That 4.25 hours in the room is like an extra 17 hours in the fridge. At worst, you have decreased its fridge lifetime by one day.The effect of temperature on rates of reaction
How long is UHT milk good for after opening?
Milk was created for a baby bovine. Everything beyond that is moot. And disgusting, don’t forget disgusting. Dairy is the most unnatural and cruel culturally accept form of abuse. The irony: you are a weaned non-infant human and dairy is destroying your health.
How long can milk be unrefrigerated and still be safe to drink?
Depends on the size of the container and the ambient temperature. What you don't want is for it to get warm for any length of time whether in the fridge or not. Room temp for half an hour would be my limit for store-bought milk. We used to keep fresh milk on the counter in a bowl for a couple of hours to cool after milking, but git it in the cooler as soon as we could. That was whole, unprocessed.
For how long can milk be kept out of the fridge.?
Heres the deal, I keep tetra pack cartons of UHT treated milk in the fridge (3 month lifespan) Now I opened a pack (snipped the folded triangular sides) and forgot to seal it and keep it back in the fridge. For how long is milk drinkable/storable once its exposed to air?
Unopened two week old milk good or bad to drink?
The date on milk is the "SELL BY DATE" not the expire date. Cold milk un-opened can very well be good up to 2 weeks...only if keeped at a VERY cool temp 35-40 degrees, and left un opened. To check if its good or not, boil a cup of water and take a teaspoon of milk and pour it into the cup. If the milk "blends" with the water, its still good, if it clumps, BAD BAD MILK, and toss it.
