Yes, the lid is intentionally designed to be loose-fitting to allow gases produced during fermentation to escape safely.
While borosilicate glass is durable, it is best to avoid abrupt temperature shocks; the jar is primarily intended for fermentation and storage.
The jar is optimized to hold up to 300g of fully risen sourdough starter.
Yes, the markings are integrated into the glass design and will not wash off with regular cleaning.
Yes, the borosilicate glass is suitable for cold storage when maintaining your starter in a dormant state.
Reduce the total amount of starter being maintained; ensure you stay under the 300g limit for a healthy rise.
Ensure the exterior of the glass is clean and free from dried flour or sticky residue, then slide the ring gently.
Before the first use, wash the jar and lid in warm soapy water or place them in the dishwasher. To begin, add your starter to the jar, ensuring you do not exceed the recommended 300g for active, risen volume. Place the lid on top loosely; it is specifically designed to allow gas to escape during the fermentation cycle. For cleaning, the wide-mouth design accommodates a standard sponge or bottle brush. Both the borosilicate glass and the lid are dishwasher-safe, ensuring long-term hygiene without the risk of material degradation.
