Description

Bormioli Quattro Stagioni capsules are the heart of Bormioli's home preservation system, a true symbol of the art of preparing and preserving food. Designed to guarantee an airtight seal and create a vacuum, they are the indispensable element for the safety and long life of your preserves, from home-made jams to pickles, sauces and much more.

Quattro Stagioni lids are mainly made of aluminium, a strong and lightweight material, which makes them ideal for the sterilisation and pasteurisation process. Their special feature lies in the inner seal, which is thicker and more elastic than common caps. This special seal is designed to be permeable to gases but impermeable to liquids, a key feature that enables the so-called 'venting' effect during boiling. This mechanism allows air to escape from the pot during heating, creating a lasting vacuum once the pot cools down.

They are available in different sizes to fit the wide range of Quattro Stagioni jars and bottles. The most common diameters include 56 mm, 70 mm and 86 mm, designed for jars of various capacities, from the smallest (such as 15 cl or 20 cl) to the largest (up to 378 cl).

The use of Quattro Stagioni capsules is intuitive, but it is essential to follow certain guidelines to ensure an effective and safe vacuum. The capsules should only be used once to create the vacuum, as the internal mastic adapts to the shape of the jar and its integrity is crucial for a perfect seal. Once the jar is opened, the distinctive 'clack' confirms that the vacuum has been created, a sign that the capsule has done its job correctly.

It is important to wash the capsules by hand without harsh detergents and they are not suitable for use in the dishwasher or microwave. The jars, on the other hand, can be washed in the dishwasher and used in the microwave (without the capsule) up to 70°C. To avoid thermal shocks that could break the glass, it is advisable not to pour food that is too cold or too hot in the jars compared to their ambient temperature (maximum temperature difference of 42°C).
