Description
the 1550ml (1.55 Liter) Wire Clip Glass Jar is a high-capacity storage solution, favored for its versatility in both dry food organization and bulk fermentation.
Product Specifications
- Capacity: 1550ml / 1.55 Liters (approx. 52.4 oz).
- Closure System: A mechanical stainless steel wire bale with a lever-lock system that provides high pressure for a superior seal.
- Airtight Seal: Features a thick, replaceable rubber or silicone gasket (sealing ring) that ensures the jar is leak-proof and airtight.
- Material: Heavy-duty, transparent glass that is odor-resistant and stain-proof.
- Dimensions: Generally stands approximately 21–23 cm tall, making it a taller alternative to the standard 1L jar.
Functional Use Cases
- Dry Pantry Staples: Ideally sized for storing 1kg of flour or sugar with extra headspace, or large quantities of pasta (such as fusilli or penne), cereal, and granola.
- Fermentation: The 1550ml capacity is excellent for large-batch kombucha second fermentation, pickling long vegetables (like cucumbers or carrots), or steeping sun teas.
- Bulk Snacks: Frequently used for large volumes of cookies, pretzels, or crackers to keep them crisp.
- Sourdough: A preferred size for high-hydration sourdough starters that require significant room to "rise" without overflowing.
Care and Maintenance
- Cleaning: The glass body is dishwasher safe. To prolong the life of the metal and seal, it is recommended to remove the wire clip and rubber gasket for hand-washing.
- Temperature: While durable, avoid "thermal shock" (moving the jar directly from a freezer to boiling water).
