FAQs
Is the Yohki jar safe for microwave use?
The borosilicate glass is heat-resistant, but the cork lid is not microwave safe and must be removed before heating the glass base.
Can I store liquids in this jar?
While the jar is leak-resistant, it is primarily designed for dry goods and is not intended to be a sealed liquid container for transport.
How do I clean the glass jar?
The glass portion is dishwasher safe, or it can be hand-washed with standard dish soap and warm water.
Does the cork lid need special treatment?
Occasional light wiping with a damp cloth is sufficient. Do not use chemical cleaners or bleach on the cork.
Are there different sizes available in the Yohki series?
Yes, the Yohki series includes various capacities to suit different storage needs; this model is the 600 ml version.
Troubleshooting
The lid feels loose or difficult to seal
Ensure the rim of the glass jar and the cork are completely dry before closing; moisture can act as a lubricant that causes the cork to slide.
Cork lid has absorbed a smell
Gently wipe the cork with a slightly damp cloth using a mild vinegar solution and allow it to air dry thoroughly in a well-ventilated area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Bodum Yohki jar in optimal condition, wash the glass vessel in your dishwasher before the first use to remove any production dust. The natural cork lid should be wiped down with a soft, damp cloth and never submerged in water, as excessive moisture can cause the cork to lose its shape or develop mold. When placing the lid, press down firmly to ensure a secure fit. The 600 ml size is compact enough to fit standard kitchen cupboards but works best when stored on flat, stable surfaces to prevent tipping.
