HOW TO CLEAN YOUR QUOKKA

Keep your Quokka bottle in perfect condition with these simple steps. Regular cleaning ensures hygiene, durability and the best flavour in every sip.

Complete step-by-step process

Follow this detailed guide to achieve a professional clean of your Quokka bottle at home.

Step 1
Rinse with warm water

Start by rinsing your bottle with warm water to loosen any residue. Make sure the water covers the entire interior.

Tip: warm water is more effective than cold water at dissolving residue and preparing the surface for cleaning.

Step 2
Apply mild soap

Add a few drops of gentle dish soap. Avoid harsh detergents that can leave residue or affect the taste.

Tip: a neutral soap is enough. You don’t need large amounts — less is more.

Step 3
Use a bottle brush

Insert a soft-bristled bottle brush and gently scrub all interior surfaces, including the bottom and sides.

Tip: pay special attention to the corners and the base, where residue can build up.

Step 4
Air dry upside down

Place the bottle and cap upside down on a rack or clean towel. Allow them to air dry completely.

Tip: thorough drying prevents the growth of bacteria and mold. Never close a damp bottle.

Tips by drink type
Sparkling water

If you use sparkling drinks, open the lid carefully and clean it immediately afterwards.

With ice

After using with ice, rinse thoroughly to remove any water residue that may remain.

Milk-based drinks

Milk-based drinks require immediate cleaning. Do not let dairy sit in the bottle.

Acidic drinks

Citrus juices are safe, but clean your bottle soon after use to maintain the best flavour.

Frequently asked questions
How often should I clean my Quokka bottle?
It depends on how often you use it. If you use it daily, ideally clean it every day to avoid bad smells, bacteria, or odd tastes. A deep clean once a week is recommended, and rinse it immediately if you have used it for smoothies, milk, or sugary drinks.
Can I put my bottle in the dishwasher?
It is not suitable for the dishwasher. High heat can damage the insulation, the vacuum seal can easily be compromised, and detergents may affect the interior or leave unwanted tastes.
How do I remove coffee or tea stains?
You can use warm water with baking soda, vinegar, or lemon juice. Leave it to work for 30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with plenty of warm water.
What do I do if my bottle smells bad?
A bad smell is a sign that your bottle needs a deep clean. Take a look at our cleaning recommendations, make sure you clean the lid thoroughly, and never close the bottle until it is completely dry.
Can I use specialised cleaning products?
Yes, as long as they are specifically designed for stainless steel and are food-safe. These products are not recommended for everyday use, but rather for occasional deep cleans.
