I've been using the Eco Hydro-hydrolsate, the company is not far from me on=
 the coast.

You can call and talk with the owners, father and daughter I think.

I don't have the jug in front of me so my question is..... Are you talking =
about their "hydrolysate" product or is the product fish "emulsion". Usuall=
y emulsion is blended fish and is used as a fertilizer while hydrolysate, c=
old processed preserves oil and enzymes and is used for brewing biology.

If you are speaking of hydrolysate, something I learned this year is that i=
f it is heated up in storage or transportation and the oil separates from t=
he emulsion you now have a layer of fish oil on top of fish emulsion. It is=
 no longer hydrolysate. I see the stuff they have on the shelf separated mo=
re often than not and try to explain it to the store employees but they loo=
k at me like I'm crazy and they don't ever do anything about it.

Depending on where you live, you may want to find another resource or conta=
ct them directly for sales. Or order it during the winter months when there=
 is less chance of heat separation.
