I am just getting my feet wet on the whole WVO thing

Dry oil (fully de-watered) will last up to a year if stored in an air tight container in a cool dark place. Bacteria in the water portion of the oil with heat makes WVO rancid so yes filter, de-water and store the sealed container inside. Adding a biocide is always a good idea for long term storage. Direct sun =
