3 Ways to Keep Your Copper Bottles Clean

by Anant Khare 22 Mar 2022

Copper might seem like a tough material to clean, but you'll be surprised at how simple it actually is. Copper doesn't tarnish very easily; this is why it's so common to see copper pots, pans, kettles, and decorative items — all of which are found in most kitchens today, regardless of the surface they're on. In fact, improper care can leave your copper utensils looking dull or dark blue, so knowing how to clean copper properly is important if you want them to stay looking nice.

Why you should clean your copper bottle

There are various reasons why you should clean your copper bottle regularly or after use:

1. Copper is an essential metal that is required by our body to function properly, but when it comes in contact with certain elements or liquids, it loses its anti-bacterial properties and may even turn poisonous. Therefore, it becomes very important to clean your copper bottle regularly to keep your water safe for consumption. 2. A regular clean-up prevents the accumulation of germs and bacteria inside the bottle, which might cause serious health hazards for you if not cleaned on time. 3. If you do not clean your copper bottle regularly, then it may leave stains on your clothes or any other surface which can be difficult to wash off later.

3 Ways to clean your copper bottle

Clean with lemon and salt

Lemon is acidic and salt is abrasive, so together they make a great cleaning agent. Squeeze out half a lemon into the bottle, add a tablespoon of salt and then fill it up with water. Shake well and let it sit for 15 minutes before rinsing well.

Lemon and Vinegar for cleaning copper utensils

 

Clean with vinegar

If you don't have lemons, you can use vinegar instead. Fill the bottle three-quarters full with white distilled vinegar and top it up with water. Let it soak overnight, then rinse well the next morning. Alternatively, you can boil the vinegar and water solution in a regular pot on the stovetop for 10 minutes before letting it cool down completely. Rinse well before using again.

Clean with ketchup

Using ketchup to clean your copper bottle is quick and easy. Pour two tablespoons of ketchup into your copper water bottle. Add warm water until the bottle is three-quarters full, then place the cap on top. Shake the bottle vigorously for one minute — this scours off any dirt and grease. Wipe down the inside and outside of your bottle with a soft cloth to remove any residue then rinse with warm water. Dry well with a soft cloth.
