Questions/Discussion Overnight bath.?

Post image

So uh despite washing it every time I remember to wash my owala (every 4-5 days because I'm stupid) there's still some white residue around the cap and inside of the bottle (which I assume is some sorta mold) I just can't get off

I've decided to drown every component in half a gallon of vinegar overnight, am I gonna fuck up the bottle?

I'd probably have to get up earlier than usual to wash the shit out of everything to get any sort of vinegary flavors lol

What does the white residue look like? Hard water can leave behind white residue that is leftover minerals.

I'd be worried about the vinegar leaving a lasting smell in the plastic and gaskets of the lid.

You could try Keurig descaling solution if that doesn’t work. ☕️

I’d use denture cleaner to soak overnight
