Can you sterilize with boiling water?

I don't think you can. I used it to brew kombucha. If you would put it into boiling water it may crack. I'm sorry that I'm not sure

I don't see why not. The glass should have no problems with hot water. Good luck!!

I've had my machine for two years, so it's been a while since I read the booklet, but I thought this was covered there. From personal experience and Food Safety Certification class, I know *I* wouldn't drink from a pot of water that had been sitting around for hours or days unless it had been boiled and thus sterilized first.

You cannot sterile things in a microwave. Sterilization by radiation is done using ultraviolet light--not microwaves. You CAN submerge the neti pot in boiling water for 3 - 5 minutes to sterilize it without ultraviolet radiation.

I have poured boiling water in for coffee, no problem. Washed up to as clear a finish as I began with! Hope this helps

Yes. I use a scissors to snip off the number I need and then individually open them and plop them into the water I want to sterilize. I try not to touch them so I have to be careful to aim them into the container so they don't wind up on the ground

I would not do that because you can not completely sterilize the bottles unless you soak them in hot water and a little bleach. Which i would not want to serve my Baby!

Either distilled water or water that has been recently boiled. Of course if you boil the water then cool it down to room temp before using it. The reason for this is to ensure there are no microbes or pathogens in the water.

Just like you do any other bottle. Whether you want to boil daily, use an electric or microwaveable sterilizer, or even sterilizing tabs. Any of these ways will work just fine.

Havn't tried, but I don't think so. You pour boiling water into it, as in tea!

This would not be right for you. You would need to bring the water to a full rolling boil and then start counting your minutes at that rolling boil. You would need to use bottled water in this or water you had sterilized and cooled. It just won't get hot enough.

I have found that it is safe but question why you would need boiling hot water. Prepare the tea or other hot/cold beverage to your liking and enjoy for hours. I have made hot chocolate and it was still VERY hot 16 hours later!! We made hot chocolate for a high school football game. We didn't drink it all. The next morning, I opened it to find it was still VERY hot 16 hours after initial preparation!!

Maybe, the nozzle and cup could go in a sterilizer. I just used hot water and antibacterial soap. You could wipe it with some rubbing alcohol.

If you like to sterilize your water for 7 minutes, why not just boil it on the stove in an open pot? You can do a lot more a lot faster that way.

We don't always boil lids, just use very hot water. This procedure softens the rubber on the lid for a better seal and at the same time sanitizes them.

We do not recommend boiling the jar, but the blade can be boiled for sterilization. The jar is dishwasher safe, and can be sterilized that way.

No. You could microwave the water then pour it in, I just use a tea kettle on the stove. Doesn't even have to be boiling.
