Let's Clean your Hardworking Water Bottle

Your Chilly Moose reusable bottle has been working overtime all Summer long. We've got some tips to help you give it a solid deep clean and a little TLC so you can keep your hydration fresh with each refill.

Cleaning a Chilly Moose stainless steel bottle is pretty straightforward. Here’s a simple guide to keep it fresh and hygienic:

 

DAILY CLEAN

Rinse with Water. After each use, rinse the bottle with warm water to remove any residue.
Use a Bottle Brush: For a more thorough clean, use a bottle brush to scrub the inside. This helps get into all the nooks and crannies.
Mild Soap:  Add a small amount of mild dish soap to warm water and use the brush to clean the interior. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleansers or bleach as they can damage the stainless steel.

 

DEEP CLEAN

Vinegar and Baking Soda: For a deeper clean, fill the bottle with warm water, add a couple of tablespoons of baking soda and a splash of vinegar. Let it sit for a few hours or overnight. Then scrub with a bottle brush and rinse thoroughly.
Dishwasher: Chilly Moose single-colour powdercoat bottles and tumblers are dishwasher safe. Place the bottle on the top rack only. Please note, bottle and tumbler lids are not dishwasher safe and should always be handwashed.

*Harbour White, Great Lakes and Woodland drinkware styles are not dishwasher safe and should be handwashed to maintain the finish.

 

DEALING WITH ODORS

Baking Soda: Mix a tablespoon of baking soda with warm water, fill the bottle, and let it sit overnight. Rinse well the next day.
Lemon Juice: Lemon juice can also help neutralize odors. Mix with water, let it sit, and then rinse thoroughly.


DRY COMPLETELY

Air Dry: Allow your bottle to air dry completely with the cap off to prevent mold and mildew. You can place it upside down on a drying rack.

 

DON'T FORGET THE LID, GASKETS & STRAWS

Remove and Clean: Most Chilly Moose bottles have easy-to-remove lid gaskets. Take apart any removable components like the lid, seals, or straws. Wash them all separately with warm, soapy water. To clean straws, use a small straw brush to scrub the interior. Rinse everything well and allow to air dry before reassembling the lid components.

Regular cleaning helps maintain your Chilly Moose bottle's appearance and ensures you have perfectly fresh hydration with each and every sip.
