Are these jars dishwasher safe?
While the glass is durable, we recommend hand washing the metal lids to maintain the finish, and using a delicate cycle for the glass jars.
Can I use these for hot water bath canning?
Yes, these jars are suitable for standard home canning processes provided you use proper sterilization techniques and allow for expansion.
Are the lids rust-proof?
The metal lids are designed for kitchen use, but you should always dry them immediately after washing to prevent moisture buildup.
What is the exact volume of these jars?
These jars have a capacity of 310ml, making them ideal for standard portion sizes.
Do these jars come with labels?
No, these jars do not include labels, but their smooth glass surface is perfect for applying your own custom adhesive tags.
Troubleshooting

Ensure the rim of the glass is clean and free of food debris before screwing on the lid.

Gently tap the edge of the lid with a spoon or run the lid under warm water for 30 seconds to release the vacuum pressure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before using your Argon Tableware jars, you must sterilize them to ensure a clean environment for your preserves. Submerge the glass jars in boiling water for several minutes and allow them to air dry completely. When filling, leave a small amount of 'headspace' at the top of the jar to allow for expansion if you are freezing or water-bath canning. While the glass is durable, avoid sudden temperature changes—do not pour boiling liquids into a cold glass jar, as this can cause thermal shock. To clean, use warm, soapy water and a soft cloth to protect the gold finish on the metal lids.
