How much breastmilk to store per bag for freezer stash?

Hi mummies, my LO is currently 2 months old and is fully breastfed. I have oversupply and have so far been storing around 140ml per bag for use. Any mummies can share their experience with how much recommended for storage per bag? What happens when you only need portion of it when u need to use, do you thaw in fridge and use within a day?

I store based on baby’s intake (waste of bags yes but I rather waste bags than milk). Increase amount as baby grows. First 6 months, I give baby freshly pumped milk and store the balance to freeze, then after that, feed the ones in the freezer and freeze the new milk so that I can clear the older ones. Thaw in fridge, feed within 24 hours.
