How to Clean and Care for Your Kinto Tumbler and Bottle

Quick Answer

For daily cleaning, hand-wash your Kinto ACTIVE Tumbler and Water Bottle with mild dish soap and warm water, using a soft sponge or bottle brush. Avoid abrasive scrubbers and never put them in the dishwasher or microwave.

Step-by-Step Cleaning Guide

1. Rinse Immediately After Use: Empty any remaining liquid and rinse the inside of your tumbler or bottle with warm water. This prevents residue from drying and makes deep cleaning easier. Don't let liquids sit for hours; rinse right away to avoid odors.
2. Wash with Mild Soap and Warm Water: Add a drop of mild dish soap to warm water and use a soft sponge or bottle brush to clean the interior and exterior. For the ACTIVE Tumbler, pay attention to the straw spout and lid, using a small brush if needed. Avoid abrasive pads or steel wool that can scratch surfaces.
3. Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse all parts under running water until no soap residue remains. Leftover soap can affect the taste of your next drink. Check that the water runs clear from the spout or lid.
4. Dry Completely: Shake off excess water and place the tumbler or bottle upside down on a drying rack. Ensure the lid is fully dry before reassembling to prevent mold or mildew. Air dry with the lid off to keep the interior fresh.
5. Remove Stubborn Odors with Baking Soda: If odors persist, fill the container with warm water and add a tablespoon of baking soda. Let it sit for 15-20 minutes, then scrub gently and rinse thoroughly. Baking soda is a safe, non-abrasive deodorizer for both materials.
