FAQs
Do I need to sterilize these jars before use?
Yes, it is highly recommended to sterilize the jars and lids before filling, especially if you are preserving food, to ensure safety and longevity of the contents.
What is the best way to sterilize the jars?
You can sterilize by washing with hot soapy water, rinsing, and then placing in a preheated oven at 140°C (285°F) for 15 minutes, or by boiling them in water for 10 minutes.
Can these jars be used in a dishwasher?
Handwashing is recommended to best preserve the lids. The glass is durable, but the silver finish on the lids may be affected by dishwasher cycles.
Are the lids truly airtight?
Yes, the silver metal screw-top lids are designed to create an airtight seal when properly closed, helping to preserve freshness.
What kind of contents are these jars best suited for?
They are ideal for small batches of jams, jellies, chutneys, pickles, sauces, or as containers for spices, herbs, or small craft items.
Can I reheat contents in these jars?
While the glass is durable, it is not recommended to reheat contents directly in the jars, especially with sudden temperature changes, as this could cause breakage.
What is the material of the lid?
The lids are made of silver-colored metal with a screw-top mechanism.
Troubleshooting
Lid is difficult to screw on tightly
Ensure the rim of the jar is clean and free from debris. Check that the contents are not overfilled, preventing the lid from seating correctly.
Seal is not airtight after closing
Verify that the rubber seal inside the lid is intact and properly seated. Re-tighten the lid firmly. If the jar was not properly sterilized or cooled, the seal may not form.
Glass appears cloudy after washing
This may be due to mineral deposits from hard water. Try washing with distilled water or adding a tablespoon of white vinegar to your wash cycle.

Before filling, it is essential to sterilize the jars and lids. This can be done by washing them thoroughly with hot, soapy water, rinsing, and then placing them in a preheated oven at 140°C (285°F) for at least 15 minutes, or by boiling them in water for 10 minutes.
