What material is the tin made from?
It is crafted from powder-coated steel with a chrome handle.
What are the dimensions of the tin?

Can I use this for tea or sugar as well?

Is the 'Coffee' label removable?

Troubleshooting
Lid does not seal properly
Ensure the rim of the canister and the inside of the lid are clean and free from debris. Check that the rubber seal (if applicable) is properly seated and not damaged. Try re-seating the lid firmly.
Canister has a lingering odor
Wash the canister thoroughly with warm, soapy water. For stubborn odors, try filling the canister with a mixture of baking soda and water, letting it sit for a few hours, then rinsing and drying completely.
Exterior finish is scratched
Minor scratches can sometimes be buffed out gently with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, professional repair might be considered, but note that the powder coating can be difficult to match precisely. Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials in the future.
