Product Information
The ml capacity can be used to portion beans and reduce how often a larger bag is opened. Bean volume varies with variety, roast level, moisture, shape and filling method, so approx. g is a reference only and does not mean every coffee fills the canister to the same height.
Opaque stainless-steel body Reference values: 550mL, 200g
The stainless-steel body blocks light and should be kept in a dry place away from direct sunlight. Product information does not state a vacuum structure, airtightness rating or fixed freshness period, so this page does not claim that the canister guarantees a particular number of fresh-storage days. For both coffee beans and ground coffee
Source information lists reference loads of approx. g for coffee beans and g for ground coffee. Particle size, packing density and filling method change the actual weight. Use a scale when precise portions are needed.
Before first use, clean according to the instructions supplied with the item and dry the body and lid completely.
Use a scale to portion beans or ground coffee as needed, leaving enough room for the lid to close normally. Reference values: 200g, 220g

Use, Cleaning & Safety
How to Use
- Not necessarily. g is a reference figure. Dark-roast beans generally occupy more volume, and bean shape and filling method also change the actual weight that fits.
- Is it a vacuum or completely airtight canister?
- Product information does not provide a vacuum structure, airtightness rating or fixed freshness period, so this page makes no such guarantee. Keep the joining surfaces clean before closing and use the canister according to its actual construction.
- Can it hold ground coffee?
- Yes. Source information lists a reference ground-coffee load of approx. g. Use a scale if you need portions for a brewing recipe. Can I wash it with water and add beans immediately?
Notes
- Do not add beans or ground coffee while moisture remains. Let every part dry completely after cleaning and follow the cleaning guidance supplied on the actual package or instructions. Reference values: 550mL, 200g, 220g
- ml is volume. Approx. g of beans and g of ground coffee are reference loads, not fixed capacity guarantees.
