FAQs

Do I need to sterilize these jars before first use?

Yes, it is highly recommended to sterilize the jars before filling them with preserves or any food items to ensure safety and longevity.

What type of lid does this jar come with?

Each jar comes with a Silver metal screw-top lid designed to create an airtight seal.

Can these jars be used for hot filling?

Yes, these glass jars are suitable for hot filling methods, but ensure they are properly sterilized and handle with care when hot.

How should I clean these jars?

It is best to hand wash the jars and lids with warm, soapy water. Avoid abrasive cleaners. While glass is dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended for longevity.

What is the capacity of each jar?

Each jar has a capacity of 30ml.

Are these jars stackable?

Yes, the octagonal shape is designed to allow for stable stacking on shelves or market stalls.

Can I purchase lids separately?

This product information does not specify if lids can be purchased separately. These jars are sold with their accompanying lids.

Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to screw on or off.

Ensure the rim of the jar is clean and free from debris. Check that the lid is aligned correctly before screwing. If stiff, a firm grip or a rubber jar opener may help. For opening, ensure the seal has been broken (e.g., by slightly prying the edge of the lid).

Jar feels less secure after filling.

Double-check that the lid has been screwed on tightly to create an airtight seal. If the contents were hot, ensure the jar has cooled completely before attempting to tighten further. Verify that the jar rim is not chipped or damaged.

Contents appear to be spoiling or leaking.

The airtight seal may not have been achieved. Ensure the lid was screwed on tightly immediately after filling, especially if filling with hot products. Re-evaluate the sterilization process; insufficient sterilization can lead to spoilage. Check the lid and jar rim for any damage that might prevent a proper seal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Before the first use, it is essential to sterilize these glass jam jars. This can be done by washing them thoroughly in hot, soapy water, rinsing, and then placing them in a preheated oven at approximately 160°C (320°F) for 15-20 minutes, or by immersing them in boiling water for 10 minutes. Ensure the lids are also cleaned but avoid boiling them for extended periods as this may damage the seal.

Compatibility:

These jars are designed for use with their accompanying Silver metal screw-top lids, which create an airtight seal. They are compatible with a wide range of foodstuffs including jams, jellies, preserves, pickles, chutneys, sauces, oils, and spices.

Care:

Hand wash the jars and lids with warm, soapy water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the glass. While the glass jars are generally dishwasher safe, it is recommended to hand wash to preserve their clarity and prevent potential damage. Ensure jars and lids are completely dry before storing or filling.
