Question: Can the top to the coffee vac be soaked in soap and water or should it just be wiped out with a damp cloth?
Document: Pushing in the button when removing the cap makes removal easier.No washing instructions, but its probably top rack dishwasher safe, at least the bottom should be. I suggest hand washing the top or just wiping out with a cloth damped with straight white vinegar. The valve is simply a shaft mounted with a spring and a rubber or silicone washer as the sealing device. You don't want to damage that washer.Is this a true vacuum, I doubt it, possibly a partial vacuum?
I have a coffee grinder, filtered water, and the container was my missing element for the best tasting coffee at home.
The coffee vac works great. Very nice looking and the vacuum seal works just fine. You can get the same results from much higher priced containers but why pay.
Great product, keeps coffee very fresh.Its not really vac but it has a valve that doesnt let air come in or out once its closed, is an airtight. Anyway it really works in keeping the coffee fresh
As you no doubt have read, this container has a release valve for gases coming off the coffee. It's a button on the lid. I press the button on the edge with my right hand and suck on the other side creating an even tighter vac with less O2 in the container. You can do that after each opening.
I love this little coffee bean storage container. My brother n law had one. He liked it and recommended. It is great for getting rid of that bag your beans come in. With coffee vac there is no more rolling the bag up and using the "closer tabs". I hate those. Pour your coffee beans in the vac get rid of the air in it and your beans stay fresh. Easy enough to pour beans from vac to grinder. Love it.
Air tight and water tight, keeps air out and keeps things fresh. Great buy and would by more. Two thumbs up.
more beans. It's a problem because the extra air in there will make foods stale faster. The description needs to be changed.I ended up returning this and purchasing an AirScape container, which removes excess air. However, I'm pretty sure it's not 100% air-tight, but I like it better than the Tight&#34;vac&#34;.
leaked water, therefore not airtight. all 3 containers i bought failed the leak test. not vacuum sealed either, lots of air inside when closed. these canisters are not airtight or vacuum sealed. its a sham. i had no problem gettin my moneyback but i lost money in gas driving to post office to return them because of false advertisment. thermos or mason jars will do a better job at keeping ya coffee fresh than anything on market. coffee's 4 biggest enemies are air, heat, moisture, and light.
It is probably a bit pricey for this piece, but for me, it's worth it to keep my coffee fresh. I bought two - wish I'd had different colors to make it easy to differentiate between different contents, but I wrote on the top with a magic marker.
Answer: It would probably be better to wipe it out with a wet cloth or paper towel
