Troubleshooting

Salt clumping inside the pig.

This is a common issue with salt. Ensure the salt pig is completely dry before refilling. Consider using a type of salt that is less prone to clumping, or add a small amount of rice to the bottom of the pig to absorb moisture.

Exterior surface appears dull after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild dish soap. If the dullness persists, a gentle hand wash with a soft cloth may help restore the sheen. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Slight imperfections in the 'salt' lettering.

This is characteristic of the hand-stamped design. These minor variations add to the unique, artisanal charm of the product and do not affect its functionality.
