How many hours does it take to thaw frozen breastmilk in the refrigerator stored in these bottles?

In general it only takes a few hours to thaw, regardless of the container. I typically didn't freeze these though, I used milk storage bags

The bottle says use within 48 hours (refrigerated). I assume that's only if your baby hasn't drunk directly from the container because then the usual 1 hour rule would probably apply.

I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to heat the storage bags. I always thawed frozen breast milk overnight in the fridge then put it in a bottle and heated it using the warmer.

It states in the description; 20-25 years if frozen, 15 years if refrigerated and 10 years if stored at room temperature. Hope that helps! :)

It depends upon the outside temperature and the temperature of the water when you add the ice. The manufacturer says 18 hours and I have had it last that long in my air conditioned home. I have had it last 24+ hours in the fridge. But, in warmer settings, 6 -12 hours is more realistic. To maximize the time, start with a cool bottle (running cold water into it or even keeping it in the fridge). Then, use ice plus COLD water from the fridge (otherwise the warm water will melt the ice before the outside air gets a chance). Then, try to minimize time in direct sunlight. Using a room temperature bottle, plus cold water and only about 4 ice cubes, my bottle keeps at least some ice for the entire 10+ hours of my commute plus workday (desk work).

Several hours in the freezer. I keep 2 in the freezer, so there's always one available for use. Stays cold 20 min.at lease. For heat, in my microwave, it takes 1 1 /2-2 min.

As long as the ice pack is in there, the milk stays freezing cold. I used to take it to work for 15+ hour days and my milk would be freezing when I got home.

Like anything else that is frozen, let it sit on the counter for 15 minutes or more, it will eventually thaw out and it will be easier to lift out. - J Allen

I'd say a minimum of 4-5 hours. But we placed ours in the freezer over night.

Hello...I find that the ice to water ratio dictates how long ice stays in the bottle...more ice...gets you closer to the 24 hour mark. I gotta say, even when the ice is gone, the water is still nice and cold.

Depending on how long it's been in the freezer, it normally last for about 2-3 hours.

About 3 or 4 depending on the size of the chicken breasts. You can cook them frozen but better results if thawed. Takes about 8 minutes if thawed. I hope this helps.

It takes about 2 to 3 minutes, if your ice is in the freezer in the kitchen. I leave my blender on the counter and any time I or my kids want to grab the ice and crush or shave it and then add your juices or flavors and then if desired alcohol, I also spoil my kids with milk shakes with there favorite ice cream.

You have one hour to use it if it is the same bottle. If it is still in the container and hasn't been put in bottle/fed to baby, it's fine in fridge for 24 hours

You should not be microwaving breast milk. The milk thaws in them in less than 5 minutes under running water.

Depends on your time frame and ambient temperature. It is not better or worse that other similar coolers on the market. If you are serious about keeping stuff frozen for more than a few hours you are going to need to pack with dry ice or invest in a freezer that can run off a car battery. For my purposes it keeps milk and meat cold for several days but I change put the ice every 48-72 hrs depending on how hot it is.

I used hot water so it would be quicker. I put it in the freeze before bed around midnight and at 6am it was frozen solid. I love them!
