Step-by-step guide on how to clean your copper water bottle effectively

For Regular Daily Cleaning, Follow These Simple Steps:

Rinse with Water

After each use, rinse your bottle thoroughly with warm water. Do not use cold water, as warm water is more effective in removing residue.

Use a Natural Cleanser

If water alone is not enough, use a few drops of lemon juice or white vinegar with a tablespoon of salt dissolved in some water. This mixture is effective in cleaning the interior without scratching the surface.

Soft Cleaning Tool

Use a bottle brush with soft bristles to gently scrub the inside of the bottle. Avoid using steel wool or abrasive scrubbers that can scratch the copper.

Rinse and Dry

Rinse the bottle thoroughly with warm water to remove any remaining cleanser. Dry it immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots. It’s important to ensure the bottle is completely dry before you use it again to prevent the growth of bacteria.

For Deep Cleaning:

Perform a deep clean periodically or if the bottle hasn’t been used for a while

Vinegar and Salt Solution

Mix one tablespoon of table salt and two to three tablespoons of white vinegar to form a paste. Apply this paste on the inside of the bottle and let it sit for a few minutes.

Scrub Gently

Use a soft brush to scrub the interior gently. This paste is particularly effective in removing tarnish and restoring the bottle's shine.

Lemon and Salt

Another method is to use a half lemon dipped in salt. Rub the lemon on the inside of the bottle for a natural, abrasive action that cleans without scratching.

Rinse Well

After scrubbing, rinse the bottle several times with warm water to ensure all the cleaning agents are completely washed out.

Dry Thoroughly

Use a soft, dry cloth to dry the bottle completely. If possible, leave it open to air dry upside down.

Additional Tips:

Avoid Dishwasher

Copper water bottles should not be washed in the dishwasher. The harsh chemicals in dishwasher detergents can damage the copper and tarnish its appearance.

Avoid Harsh Chemicals

Steer clear of using harsh chemicals or cleaners on your copper bottle. Stick to natural ingredients for cleaning.

Storage

When not in use, store your copper water bottle in a dry place to prevent oxidation and tarnish.

Regular cleaning not only maintains the aesthetic appeal of your copper water bottle but also ensures that it remains a safe, hygienic option for your hydration needs.
