FAQs
Is the canister dishwasher safe?
The enamel body is generally durable, but hand washing is recommended to preserve the print quality. The bamboo lid is NOT dishwasher safe and must be wipe-cleaned only.
Can I store coffee or tea bags in this?
Yes, while designed for biscuits, the 2.7L capacity is perfect for any dry goods like coffee, tea bags, or sugar packets.
What are the exact dimensions?
The canister measures approximately 16.5cm in diameter and 19cm in height.
Does the lid create an airtight seal?
The bamboo lid is designed to sit securely, but it is not a pressurized airtight seal. It is best used for items you plan to consume within a reasonable timeframe.
Are there other designs available?
Yes, Purely Home offers a wider range of these canisters, including digestive and rich tea biscuit designs to complete your collection.
Troubleshooting
Lid feels loose or insecure
Ensure the rim of the canister and the underside of the bamboo lid are free of dust or crumbs that could be preventing a proper seal.
Enamel surface has marks or residue
Use a soft, damp microfiber cloth with a mild dish detergent to gently polish the surface, then dry immediately with a clean towel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the canister is straightforward: ensure the interior is thoroughly dried before your first use to maintain freshness. To care for the enamel canister, hand wash with mild soap and warm water; avoid abrasive scrubbers that could dull the finish. The bamboo lid must be wiped clean with a damp cloth only; do not soak the lid in water or place it in the dishwasher, as this can cause the natural bamboo material to warp or crack. Periodically check that the lid seal remains clean to maintain the best possible fit.
