Capabunga Cheese Vault: Yellow

Description

These are some of the many reasons whyCapabunga invented the Cheese Vault.

The Cheese Vault is a simple and reusable way to store your artisan cheese. Cheese experts agree that the worst possible way to store your cheese is the way we all do it by wrapping it in plastic wrap. Cheese needs to breathe and eliminate excess moisture to maintain its flavor and delay molding just like in a cheese cave. Until now, the only recommended solution for proper cheese storage was to use disposable wrappers or bags.

Features and Benefits

• Made of food-grade silicone that imparts no flavors (size 6x4x3.5)

• Base is designed to wick away excess moisture thereby delaying mold

• Top is designed so any moisture that might collect on the interior lid is directed away from the cheese

• The divider can be used to separate two smaller pieces of cheese, keeping each piece fresh and tasty without mingling flavors (one included in each vault)

• The two ends are polished so the name and date can be written with a ballpoint pen for easy identification then erased and reused.

• Smells from the fridge do not impact the cheese inside, nor do the cheese aromas take over the fridge

• Recommended for firmer cheeses

• Dishwasher Safe -remove any writing BEFORE exposing to the heat of dishwashing otherwise it will be permanently baked on.

How to use (It couldn’t be simpler)

• Put cheese inside unwrapped

• Identify the name of the cheese and date stored on either of the shorter ends with a medium size ballpoint pen

• Put the lid on top and store in the refrigerator

To clean

The Cheese Vaultis dishwasher safe however please removeany writing before placing in the dishwasher. If you put the Vault in the dishwasher with writing on it the heat from the dishwasher will permanently brand the side of the Vault by baking the ink into the sides.

Having said that it is dishwasher safe, we prefer to scrub out the little cheese crumbswith a sturdy scrubbing brush (or use a chopstick to remove stubborn crumbs) then use the side of a scrubbing sponge and soapy water to remove any writing on the side. We then allow it to air dry upside down.
