Galley: Three practical helpers for stowing and storing things in the galley

Coffee storage tin

For coffee lovers, there is hardly anything better than a carefully prepared cup in the morning or after arriving at the harbour. However, stale ground coffee tastes bitter and is no fun to drink. To ensure that coffee, whether ground or as beans, retains its full flavour, it must be stored in an aroma-tight container. The coffee tin from the WMF series offers a particularly safe solution. Cromargan stainless steel impresses with its durability, rust-free and flavour-neutral properties, ideal for aroma-proof storage. The airtight and lightproof lid protects up to 500 grams of coffee from external influences and preserves the flavour. The measuring spoon supplied measures out exactly one cup and can always be attached to the tin within easy reach thanks to a practical eyelet. The jar is dishwasher-safe and is also a visual eye-catcher. With a diameter of 11 centimetres, a height of 13.5 centimetres and a price of 48 euros, it is not only functional but also stylish.

WMF offers even more for stylish storage. For example, depot storage jars with a volume of one or two litres, ideal for pasta, rice or muesli, packaged in aroma-proof packaging. This is ensured by the silicone seal. More information: wmf.com

Silicone bag

Ikea sometimes has nice ideas for the pantry. Like the sealed bags called Filfisk here. The bags can be taken straight out of the freezer and heated in the microwave together with their contents (without the clip) - ideal when you need to get things done quickly. The Filfisks take up very little space and are ideal for leak-proof storage of all food on board. They are resealable and therefore reusable and dishwasher-safe. The silicone rubber containers are not suitable for the oven. The bags cost 12.99 euros as a set of three in the 1.0, 1.2 and 2.5 litre sizes. More information: ikea. de

Pool noodles secure crockery and glasses

Pool noodles can not only be used in the water, but also provide good service on board: they are ideal helpers when stowing away crockery and glasses. Simply cut the noodles to the desired size and fit them into the drawers. They are 1.60 metres long and available in nine colours. The pool noodles have a diameter of 6.7 centimetres and are made of polyethylene foam.
