Troubleshooting

Basin lid not sealing properly

Ensure there is no debris around the rim of the basin or on the lid's sealing edge. Press down firmly on all clips until they engage.

Pudding seems overcooked or dry

Check the cooking time recommended for your specific recipe and cooking method. Ensure the lid's steam vents are not blocked. Reduce cooking time if necessary.

Discoloration after multiple uses

Some foods, especially those with strong natural colours (like berries or certain spices), may cause temporary staining on plastic. This is cosmetic and does not affect food safety. Try soaking in a mild bleach solution or using a plastic-safe cleaner.

Plastic has warped

Ensure the basin is not placed directly on a heating element and is used within the recommended temperature ranges for microwave, pressure cooker, or slow cooker use. Extreme prolonged heat can cause warping.
