5 tips explained step by step
Glassmania offers you valuable tips for every situation in the life of your glass.
Once you receive your order
- Carefully unpack the jars and recycle the cardboard box and protective paper.
- Rinse your glasses before use.
In the dishwasher
- Rinse your glasses with clean water.
- Be careful that the glasses do not touch each other to avoid possible stains.
- Add dishwashing liquid and shine liquid.
- Personalised printed glasses like non-aggressive detergents.
- Soft water removes marks better than hard water. The softer the water, the less detergent is needed. Adjust the dosage according to the water hardness of the local conditions.
- Use the "Glasses" programme (max. 50°C) and a short rinse cycle.
- Once the programme is finished, do not open the dishwasher completely so that the hot steam can escape. This prevents the formation of drying marks.
- Allow the glasses to cool before use.
- Wipe your glasses with a clean cloth to avoid limescale residue.
During the cooking process
- All certified glass packaging can be heated in the microwave and oven.
- Never use metal objects in the microwave.
- Read the operating instructions for each product.
In the freezer
- When freezing, leave 10% of the jar empty so that nothing leaks in the freezer compartment.
- When defrosting, place the jars in the refrigerator to avoid thermal shock (+/- 40°C).
When preserving
Pasteurisierung
- Wash and preheat your jars, seals and disposable lids before use.
- Pasteurisation is easily done with a pot of water or a "steriliser" with a thermostat (75°C).
- Store at a low temperature.
Sterilisation
- Choose lids that are suitable for high temperature sterilisation.
- Wash and preheat your jars, seals and disposable lids before use.
- Sterilisation is carried out with a pressurised device that can reach a temperature of 116-140°C.
- Store at room temperature.
In general, you should make sure that your jars are filled correctly:
- The fill level is indicated on the technical drawing of your jar, or fill it up, making sure to leave a 10% gap.
- The fill level is always indicated for a temperature of 20°C.
- When filling, make sure that all filling heads work properly to guarantee the volume defined in the technical drawing.
- Temperature shocks are to be avoided (maximum 40°C).
- Bottles like to be stored vertically.
