FAQs
What material are the lids made of?
The lids are made of metal and are designed to create an airtight seal.
Can these jars be used for canning?
These jars are intended for general storage and not for commercial canning processes, which require specific types of jars and lids for safe preservation.
Are the jars microwave or dishwasher safe?
The glass jars are generally microwave-safe, but the metal lids are not. Hand washing is recommended for both the jars and lids to ensure longevity and maintain the seal.
How many jars are included in a set?
The product description mentions 'These 30 small glass jars', indicating the set contains 30 jars.
What is the capacity of each jar?
Each jar has a capacity of 45ml.
Can I buy replacement lids?
Replacement lid availability may vary. Please check the product listing or contact the manufacturer for information on purchasing individual replacement parts.
Are these jars suitable for hot liquids?
The glass is suitable for hot liquids, but care should be taken when filling and sealing, as the metal lid may become hot.
Troubleshooting
Lid is difficult to screw on or off.
Ensure the jar rim and lid threads are clean and dry. If the lid is slightly deformed, gently adjust the metal rim. For stubborn lids, a rubber grip or jar opener can assist.
Jar feels sticky after washing.
Rinse thoroughly with warm water and ensure all soap residue is removed. Dry completely with a soft cloth.
Contents are not staying fresh.
Check that the lid is screwed on tightly and the seal is intact. Ensure the jar was properly cleaned and dried before filling. Consider if the contents themselves are prone to spoilage.
Glass appears cloudy after washing.
This can be due to hard water residue. Try washing with distilled water or adding a tablespoon of vinegar to the warm soapy water during washing. Rinse thoroughly afterward.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These jars require no assembly. Simply fill them with your desired contents and screw on the metal lid until it is securely tightened to ensure an airtight seal.
Compatibility: The jars are compatible with most standard shelving and storage solutions. The metal lids are designed to fit the glass jar rim securely.
Care:
- Cleaning: Hand wash with warm, soapy water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scrubbers, which can scratch the glass. The metal lids should also be washed by hand and dried thoroughly to prevent rust.
- Drying: Allow jars and lids to air dry completely before storing or refilling.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Lid Maintenance: If the lid becomes difficult to screw on or off, a small amount of food-grade lubricant or beeswax can be applied to the threads, or try gently bending the lid's rim inwards slightly to improve grip.
