Does this item need to be refrigerated?

yes, frozen, in my experience, and rehydrated 15-30 min. before use. Steve Shapson's blue cheese kit has all ingredients mixed, but 3 of my blue cheeses with p. roqueforti ala Ricki Carroll's recipe have turned out great( not always the same, but bluey and creamy or salty/shocking-good).

Am I correct in calculating that this packet is enough for 132 gallons of milk?

sounds a lot, but 1/16 tsp per 2 gal/ you might be correct

Yes, it is a powder and can be used to sharpen other cheeses, in moderation
