I checked on line and the advice was to keep it at room temperature for
a day or two, but to freeze it after that. For the amount of bread that
I use and the time it takes for me to use it up, I just stick it
directly into the freezer. As long as I use it up within a a couple
weeks it is none the worse for wear.
