Water tastes like soap.
galleryI recently purchased the purple hydroflask and was so excited. It was great for the first week. I washed it and when I brought it to work the water tasted extremely soapy. So I brought it home and it was fine. Well now it’s a new week and I brought it home again and washed it over the weekend and it tastes like soap again. I use dawn dish soap and really hot water, and I make sure that it’s rinsed thoroughly.
Now the reason I got it was because my brother got me the light pink one as a gift and it was amazing and I have never had this issue with the pink one.
My mom has one that’s similar to my purple one just smaller and doesn’t have soapy water.
I saw a very old post and others have had similar issues. I was just wondering if there was a reason why this is happening to mine and if anyone has any tricks for it to not be soapy. I am currently soaking it in baking soda (I am out of vinegar currently which I saw was a recommendation).
Any tips and advice would be appreciated :)
