FAQs

Are the glass jars microwave safe?

The glass jars are made from high borosilicate glass, but it is not recommended to use them in the microwave, especially with the cork lids on. Always remove the cork lid before microwaving any food item.

Can I store liquids in these jars?

While the cork lid provides an airtight seal, these jars are primarily designed for dry goods. Storing liquids may lead to potential leaks or spoilage if the seal is not perfectly maintained.

How do I clean the cork lids?

The cork lids should be hand-washed only. Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap, wipe them clean, and then ensure they are completely dry before re-inserting them into the jars.

What is the capacity of each jar?

Each jar in the set has a capacity of 500ml.

Are replacement cork lids available?

Please refer to the manufacturer's website or your point of purchase for information on replacement parts.

Can I put these jars in the freezer?

It is not recommended to use these jars in the freezer, as the expansion of contents could potentially damage the glass.

What are the dimensions of the jars?

Specific dimensions can vary slightly, but they are designed to be compact for countertop use and storage. Please refer to the product packaging or the seller's listing for precise measurements.

Troubleshooting

Cork lid does not seal tightly

Ensure the rim of the glass jar is clean and dry. Push the cork lid firmly and evenly into the jar opening. If the cork appears misshapen, it may need to be replaced.

Glass jar feels light or fragile

These jars are made from high borosilicate glass, which is strong but still requires careful handling. Avoid sudden temperature changes or impacts.

Jar contents are difficult to see clearly

Wipe the exterior of the glass jar with a clean, dry cloth. Ensure the interior is also free of residue.

Cork lid has absorbed odors

Wipe the cork lid thoroughly with a mild detergent and water, then allow it to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. For persistent odors, a baking soda paste can be applied and then wiped off.
