Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to seal or remove.

Ensure there are no food particles or moisture around the rim of the jar or the lid. If the wood feels dry, it might expand slightly; try conditioning it with a food-safe oil.

Condensation inside the jar.

This can occur if very moist food is stored or if the jar is filled with warm food. Ensure food is completely cool and dry before storage. Remove the lid and allow the interior to air dry completely.

Wood lid appears dry or dull.

Apply a small amount of food-safe mineral oil to a clean cloth and rub it into the wood. Let it soak in for a few minutes, then wipe off any excess. Repeat as needed.
