FAQs
Can I put the biscuit tin in the dishwasher?
The enamel container can generally be hand-washed, but the bamboo lid should never be placed in a dishwasher as the heat and moisture will damage the wood.
Is the lid airtight?

What are the dimensions of the tin?
The tin is 19cm in height and 16.5cm in diameter.
Can I store things other than biscuits in this tin?
Yes, its 2.7L capacity makes it suitable for various dry goods like flour, crackers, or even small craft supplies.
Are there other sizes available in this design?
Yes, there is a full range of smaller canisters available for items like tea, coffee, and sugar.
Troubleshooting
Lid feels difficult to remove
Ensure the rim of the canister is clean and free of crumbs, which can cause friction against the lid seal.
Water spots on the bamboo lid
Gently buff the lid with a dry cloth and apply a small amount of food-grade mineral oil to restore its natural sheen.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: simply wash the enamel interior with warm, soapy water and allow it to dry completely before your first use. To ensure the longevity of the bamboo lid, avoid soaking it in water or placing it in the dishwasher, as excess moisture can cause the wood to swell or crack; instead, wipe the surface with a clean, damp cloth. The tin is part of a larger range, so you can pair it with smaller matching canisters for coffee, tea, or sugar to achieve a cohesive kitchen aesthetic.
