It can be used in the top rack, away from the heating element, to hold small items like straws and nipples, as well as things like oral syringes and medicine cups.
Do you have a dishwasher basket insert you really like? Or a bottle brush recommendation to share? Let us know in the comments! The A. By Jolie Kerr. I'll show you how to thoroughly clean a sippy cup using two different methods.
Let's get started! For the Brush method, you will need a bottle brush which can be bought at any supermarket or drugstore. If you don't want to bother with buying a bottle brush, you can use the Rice Method uncooked rice or beans- more on this later.
Sippy cups have gotten fairly complicated, in so much that any non-drip sippy out there will have at least 3 parts. Disengage all of these attachment until your are confident that there are no more removable parts. This step is important because it will allow all pieces and angles to get a thorough scrubbing, something a dishwasher cannot do.
In the pictures, I show you different kinds of sippy cups. The first is a straw sippy, consisting of 4 separate parts, and the second is a typical sippy cup, consisting of 5 separate parts. Both cups have silicone attachments, the usual suspect for housing mildew. If you have a bottle brush, you probably have a "nipple brush" that is screwed into the handle. This pipe-cleaner-sized brush is great for getting into small crevasses of the lid.
Use the bottle brush to give the cup a good once-over. If you do not have a bottle brush, take some uncooked rice or beans and pour about 1 tbls into your sippy cup.
Add in 1 tsp of dish soap along with 1 tbls water. Screw the lid on tight, and shake shake shake! The rice or beans will act as an agitator to help remove larger pieces of accumulated gunk.
Vinegar has strong antibacterial properties, effective for killing most mold, bacteria, and germs, due to its level of acidity. Let your sippy cups enjoy their bath for at least 30 minutes to an hour.
Below you will find more information on how to clean and sterilize them. To clean the sippy cup's container, simply clean it by using mild soapy water or by using the dishwasher.
Follow the steps below:. Before you sterilize your sippy cup in boiling water, make sure that you thoroughly clean your cup under clean water with mild soapy water first.
Once cleaned, follow the steps below:. Note: To prevent deformation and damage, make sure that the cup and its parts do not touch each other or the side of the pan.
