Can you throw one of these in a hard plastic water bottle to clean it? (instead of using the dish washer)

I guess you could. But, it definitely will not remove any contaminants like dirt and grime. It would just kill anything living in it.

I would dissolve it first according to the directions, pour it into the pre-washed bottle and let it sit to disinfect. As the other person stated, it won't remove dirt and grime.

Yes. It is a bit much on the bleach content for the job; even 1/2 would do a 3L hydration pack. You will want to either pre-disolve these in a small amount of hot water before or during use. Most hard bottles (polycarbonate) can tolerate boiling water so should be no harm done.

This product is a sanitizer not a detergent, meaning it will not clean the bottle.

It will not clean a bottle like soap but will kill germs on contact. If you have residue like coke or tea, it will do nothing to clean it. On the other hand if you have only water in it and just want to kill anything left over from drinking, it will kill any germs that might be left over.

Yes, BUT remove the rubber seal ring before putting it in the dishwasher! It will eventually dry and crack if run through the hot and dry cycle.

I don't plan to put mine in the dishwasher. I think the ball on the top is wooden so I'm not sure what the dish washer will do to that piece only. I just read the description and it says that the handle is removable for storage. So it looks like it can go in the dish washer once you remove the wooden ball!

I don't put mine in the dishwasher. I first wipe it out with a dry paper towel, then I take a wet paper towel and wipe it out. Cleans up really good. I use mine at least 3 to 4 times a week. Love it. Hope this helps.

Best you can do is rinse it right away after a pitcher is finished and it comes very clean in the dishwasher if you have one. No bottle brush I found can get into the handle, I can't stand the design of it for that reason. I also put a drop of dish soap, few inches of water, cap on and shake hard.

I suppose you could but why would you want to. It cleans up in a jiffy. Besides it would take up a lot of room in the dishwasher.

I wouldn't put it in the dishwasher for that reason. I just hand wash mine once I'm done.

I bought a long handle scrub brush for just this reason. If the water bottle has a wide enough mouth, the brush can clean the whole inside well. I've restored several grungy water bottles this way. So, no dishwasher, and still confidently clean.

Yes you can wash the metal basket in a dishwasher, not the Pressure Cooker lid or gasket though.

I have never tried to do this; however, the heat from the dishwasher has never fazed it, no softening or anything... and I have had boiling water in it long enough to kasher it---- I would personally be willing to try it in mine with very hot water, but maybe a bit lower than boiling. Can't guarantee anything, but seems worth a shot. Or you could buy a hot water kettle instead. :D

With some light soap and warm water, yes. However, it takes a long time to dry. If you have a dish-rack, leaving it opened as much as you can for a few days will do it. Don't think it would do well in a dishwasher or washing machine as the very fine plastic might melt.

I don't have problems cleaning this, I just put it straight into hot soapy water for a few minutes then insert my dish rag into each end to clean, it works fine. I suppose you could use a bottle brush as well.

Yes, you can, there is no problems with them going into dishwasher, same as your glass bowl can also be washed in dishwasher

I'm sorry, I have not put mine in the dishwasher. I wash mine by hand with an hospital grade disinfectant in the water called Citrus II, which you can also purchase from Amazon. It gets them cleaner than the dishwasher.

I wouldn't put it in a dishwasher. Warm water and mild soap should do the trick...........Hope this helps

I have put into the dishwasher once without problems but cleaning with a plastic sourer is necessary and to do so with detergent completes the cleaning. I think the plate needs seasoning so I tend not to use a dishwasher.

We haven't put it in the dishwasher yet but I don't see why you couldn't. Ours hasn't needed that hard of a washing yet.
