Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the canister is straightforward: ensure the interior is clean and dry before your first use. For maintenance, it is essential to hand-wash the enamel base with mild soap and warm water; avoid harsh abrasive sponges that could scratch the print. The bamboo lid should never be submerged in water for extended periods. To maintain the lid's finish, wipe it with a damp cloth and periodically apply a food-safe wood oil to prevent it from drying out or cracking. Keep the tin away from extreme heat sources, such as directly next to a stove, to protect the longevity of the bamboo lid and the enamel coating.
