Waterbottles...?

[Stephenjames]

Hiya,

Not sure if I have posted this in the right place, so apologies in advance if that is the case. Does anyone know of the right product/method for cleaning and/or sterilising water bottles?? I have some Rapha (Camelbak) and some Specialized water bottles which I use for Spinning Classes, Mountain Biking and Road cycling and was wondering what is the best method of keeping them in tip-top condition??

Thanks.

A baby bottle brush for scrubbing them + some baby bottle sterilising tablets.

Depends what's been in them and how long they've been standing. Mine just get shaken and rinsed out with water and put on the drainer. Sometimes they might go in the dishwasher.

Washed out and rinsed as per other dishes being done, steeped in milton fluid every few weeks

I wash them in warm soapy water rinse and dry. Don't use a camel back though just bottles.

I have false teeth so always have a good supply of Steradent tablets, perfect for sterilising bottles.

We did this one a while back - here is my reply.

A bit O baking soda now and then does the trick, removes odours and cleans well, and its cheap

Thanks all whom took the time to reply to my post. Thanks all for the expert advice. I settled for some Milton Sterilisation tablets, seems to do the trick.
Thanks once again.

I'd go to boots and right next to the Milton tablets you see boots own brand, which are the very same thing as MIlton (you can check the label) but 1/4 of the price.

Thanks tadpole, for the heads-up on the Milton tablets, awesome, more money for energy bars!
Thanks also to Colin S and BSRU, the dishwasher seems to be an ideal solution.

Mine get washed in the sink/dishwasher and from time to time I remove the 'Jet Valve' and give that a good wash inside as well.

FYI I use THESE bottles.
