How is it used?

Zembag user manual
  • Carefully check the potatoes you put in the Zembag one by one and discard any damaged or rotten pieces; healthy potatoes could become infected by them.
  • Take out the caraway sachet from its packaging, place it among the potatoes, and close the Zembag by pulling the drawstring. One sachet is enough for 2.5 kg of potatoes.
  • Check your potatoes regularly at least once a week for signs of spoilage. You can remove and add potatoes anytime during storage.
  • If you notice signs of sprouting, add a new caraway sachet.
  • You can gently hand wash the inner and outer layers of the Zembag at a low temperature (30°C), ideally by hand.

    New and early-season potatoes do not belong in Zembag!

    Remember, new and early-season potatoes are not meant to be stored, not even in Zembag! These potatoes do not have a developed skin, making them very susceptible to mold and rot. In addition, caraway oil damages them. By law, they must be labelled as 'new' and 'early-season'. Only mature late-season potatoes belong into Zembag.

    However, Mini Zembag can be used for short-term storage of new potatoes.
