Instructions for use:
To make the vessel easier to open, lift the lid slightly by gently pulling on the handle, insert something such as a spoon handle into the resulting gap, and then slide it around the rim of the vessel.
Do not clean the vessels with abrasive scouring pads, as these could scratch the surface and create places where contamination can develop.
Important:
You can improve the seal by applying petroleum jelly or cooking oil to the rim of the vessel. Before preparing your batch, thoroughly sanitise the fermentation vessel with metabisulfite.

Storage with UV protection
To prevent damage caused by UV radiation, empty or filled vessels must not be stored outdoors. If this is not possible due to storage conditions, the vessels and lids must be stored in a way that protects them from UV radiation. For example, pallets containing vessels and lids can be covered with a UV-resistant plastic tarpaulin.
Storage of empty vessels
As the vessels and lids are sensitive to atmospheric conditions, they should be stored in a dry place at a constant temperature. This not only protects them from moisture but also effectively prevents condensation, which can damage packaging decorated with offset printing, IML applications, or digital printing. In addition, despite the use of an antistatic agent, contamination by dust or dirt cannot be ruled out, so the vessels must be stored in a clean room.
