How is it used?

	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

Potatoes with thin skin (new, early-season) can only be stored in the Zembag/Zembox without using the Filling and only for a short period of time. These potatoes do not have a fully developed skin, making them highly susceptible to mold and rot, and the essential oil in the Filling could damage them..
