How much flour can the largest canister hold?

The flour jar has dimensions of 14 x 29.5cm and can hold up to 2 kg of flour.

Do the lids create an airtight seal?

Yes, each lid features a silicone seal designed to create a tight, airtight closure, preserving the freshness of the contents.

How should I clean the silicone seal?

You can remove the silicone seal for separate cleaning. Wash it with mild soap and water, ensuring it is completely dry before reattaching it to the lid.

Can these be used for storing liquids?

These containers are designed specifically for dry goods and are not recommended for storing liquids.

Troubleshooting

Lid not sealing tightly

Ensure the silicone seal is clean, properly seated in the lid, and free of debris. Check that the rim of the canister is not deformed.

Rust spots appearing on the surface

This may indicate prolonged exposure to moisture. Ensure the canisters are dried thoroughly after washing and stored in a dry environment. Light rust can sometimes be gently buffed out with a soft cloth, but avoid abrasive cleaners.

Coating chipping or peeling

This is likely due to improper washing (e.g., dishwasher use, harsh detergents, or prolonged soaking). Adhere strictly to hand-washing guidelines and avoid abrasive scrubbing.
