FAQs

What is the exact capacity of this canister?

The canister has a capacity of 2700ml, which is approximately 2.7 liters.

Is the lid completely airtight?

Yes, the canister features an airtight seal designed to keep contents fresher for longer by preventing air and moisture from entering.

How should I clean the canister?

The canister is wipe-clean only. Use a damp cloth. It is not dishwasher safe.

Can I store liquids in this container?

No, this container is designed for dry goods only and is not suitable for storing liquids.

What are the dimensions of the canister?

The dimensions are approximately 19cm in height and 16.5cm in diameter.

Is the bamboo lid treated or sealed?

The bamboo lid is a natural material. While it provides a seal, it may benefit from occasional conditioning with a food-safe oil to maintain its condition, especially in dry environments.

Are there other designs or sizes available?

Yes, Purely Home offers other, smaller sized canisters in the range, including options for tea, coffee, sugar, and decaf.

Troubleshooting

Lid doesn't seal tightly

Ensure the rim of the canister and the edge of the bamboo lid are clean and free from debris. Check for any warping in the bamboo lid; if significant, it may need replacing. For minor gaps, ensure the lid is pressed down firmly and evenly.

Enamel coating is chipped or scratched

Minor scratches are cosmetic and typically do not affect functionality. For larger chips, discontinue use if the exposed metal shows signs of rust. Clean the affected area and consider applying a food-safe sealant if necessary, though this is not a permanent fix.

Container has absorbed odors

Fill the container with a mixture of baking soda and water, let it sit for a few hours, then rinse thoroughly. Alternatively, leave the container open to air out for 24-48 hours.

Pros and Cons

  • Bamboo lid offers a natural and stylish aesthetic.

Cons

  • Requires specific wipe-clean care, not dishwasher safe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This canister is designed for storing dry goods such as biscuits, cookies, tea, coffee, sugar, and flour. It is not intended for liquids or highly perishable items.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: This container is wipe-clean only. Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the interior and exterior. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can damage the enamel coating and design.
