Important Notes

Always ensure the lid is properly sealed before storage to maintain freshness. While the jar is dishwasher safe, hand washing may help preserve the integrity of the sealing mechanism over time. When microwaving, avoid sudden temperature changes; allow contents to cool slightly before heating to prevent thermal shock. These jars are intended solely for food storage and preservation. The package includes one Weck 776 wide-mouth barrel jar. For optimal performance and longevity, follow care instructions and avoid dropping or exposing the glass to extreme temperature fluctuations.
