Troubleshooting

Lid does not seal properly

Ensure the rim of the barrel and the inside of the lid are completely clean and dry. Check for any debris or food particles that might be obstructing the seal. If the lid or barrel rim appears warped, contact customer support.

Matte finish appears dull or scratched

Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials. If minor scuffs occur, try a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. For significant damage, consider it a sign of normal wear.

Barrel feels heavy to move

The stoneware construction provides durability but adds weight. It is recommended to place the barrel in its desired location before filling it completely, or to lift it carefully using both hands.
