Taking care of your glass cup and bamboo lid is essential to ensure their longevity and maintain their quality. Here are some simple care instructions to follow:
Glass Cup: Washing
Before using your new glass cup for the first time, make sure to wash it thoroughly. Use a mild dish detergent, warm (but not boiling) water, and a non-abrasive sponge or cloth to clean it gently.
Otherwise here is a simple checklist for you to follow:
- Handwash only
- Not dishwasher safe
- Not microwave safe
- Avoid adding extreme heat
- Do not submerge
- Clean with mild soap and water
- Avoid using metal scrubs
- Use a straw brush to clean the glass straw after use
Bamboo Lid: Washing
When it comes to washing your bamboo lid, extra care is necessary. Bamboo is porous and can absorb water when soaked, which may lead to cracks, mold, and other damage. Instead, wipe the lid clean with a damp cloth and dry it immediately.
When you first receive your cup, we suggest that you give the lid a quick rinse and then gently rub a few drops of olive oil on it, massage the surface, then wipe clean with a cloth or paper towel and let air dry. This will make the lid shinier and will give it an extra layer of protection against mold.
For use based cleaning, make sure you:
- Do not sub-merge in water
- Do not rinse excessively
- Use washcloth to wipe clean immediately after use
- Air dry thoroughly to prevent molding
- Clean in bleach if molded
Drying
After washing, allow your glass cup and bamboo lid to air dry completely. Once dry, take a soft microfiber cloth and polish the glass to remove any water marks. This simple step will help maintain the clarity of the glass.
By following these care instructions, you can ensure that your glass cup and bamboo lid stay in top condition for a long time. Remember, a little bit of care goes a long way in preserving the beauty and functionality of your favorite drinkware!
