FAQs

Can I put these shakers in the dishwasher?

The glass bodies can be hand-washed with warm, soapy water. However, the stainless steel lids should only be wiped clean with a damp cloth and should not be placed in a dishwasher, as this can damage their polished finish.

What size salt or pepper is best for these shakers?

These shakers are best suited for fine-grained salt and pepper. Very coarse crystals or large ground spices may clog the dispensing holes.

How do I clean the dispensing holes if they get clogged?

If the holes become clogged, unscrew the lid and use a thin pin, toothpick, or a small brush to gently clear any blockages. Ensure the contents are dry before re-shaking.

Are these shakers suitable for other spices?

While primarily designed for salt and pepper, they can be used for other fine-grained spices. However, it is recommended to use separate shakers for different seasonings to avoid flavor mixing.

How much seasoning does each shaker hold?

The exact capacity is not specified, but they are designed for table use and hold a standard amount suitable for regular seasoning during meals.

What is the material of the lids?

The lids are made from polished stainless steel, offering a durable and modern finish.

Troubleshooting

Seasoning is not dispensing.

Check if the shaker holes are clogged. Gently tap the shaker to dislodge any stuck seasoning. If persistent, unscrew the lid and clean the holes with a thin pin or toothpick. Ensure the contents are dry.

Lid is difficult to screw on/off.

Ensure there is no seasoning residue around the rim or threads of the glass. Wipe both the glass rim and the lid threads clean. Do not overtighten.

Condensation forming inside the glass.

This can occur in humid environments. Ensure the lid is sealed properly and store the shakers in a dry place. Allow shakers to reach room temperature before filling if taken from a cold environment.
