Are the shaker cans dishwasher safe?

What are the sizes of the shaker cans included?
The set includes two shaker cans: an 18oz can and a 28oz can.
Can I use these shakers with ingredients other than cocktails?

How do I care for the antique brass finish?
Gently hand wash with mild soap and a soft cloth. Dry immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners and scouring pads to prevent scratching or tarnishing.
Is this set suitable for professional bar use?
Yes, the durable stainless steel construction and reliable seal make this set suitable for both home enthusiasts and professional bartenders.
Troubleshooting
Shaker cans are difficult to separate after shaking.
This can sometimes happen due to a vacuum seal. To release, gently tap the edge of the smaller can against a counter or use the palm of your hand on the seam. For stubborn seals, try running a little warm water around the rim where the cans meet.
The brass plating appears dull or tarnished.
Antique brass plating requires specific care. Gently clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. For tarnish, use a specialized brass cleaner applied to a soft cloth, and then wipe clean with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Shaker leaks during use.
Ensure both cans are clean and free of debris around the rim. Press the cans together firmly to create a tight seal. If the rim is damaged or bent, it may compromise the seal. Inspect for any imperfections and consider replacing the can if damaged.
