How to Clean a Shaker Cup By Hand

Cleaning a shaker cup by hand is a simple process that, when done regularly, ensures hygiene and prolongs the life of your PerfectShaker cup.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to clean a shaker cup effectively:

Disassemble the Shaker Cup

Remove the lid, ActionRod mixing mechanism, and any other detachable parts. This allows for a more thorough cleaning.

Rinse Immediately

Rinse the shaker cup under warm running water immediately after use to remove any remaining liquids and prevent them from drying and sticking. Rinse all components, including the lid and ActionRod, under warm water to remove any visible residue or debris.

Scrubbing with Soapy Water

Fill the shaker cup with warm water and add a few drops of dish soap or mild detergent. Use a cleaning brush or sponge to scrub the interior and exterior of the cup, paying attention to the corners, threading, and any textured areas. Also, scrub the mixing ActionRod mechanism thoroughly.

Vinegar Solution for Odors (if needed)

If there are lingering odors, create a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water. Allow the components to soak for 15-20 minutes.

Baking Soda for Stains (if needed)

For stubborn stains, make a paste using baking soda and water. Apply the paste to the stained areas and scrub gently with the cleaning brush.

Rinse Thoroughly

Rinse all components under running water to remove soap, vinegar, or baking soda residues. Ensure that all cleaning agents are completely washed away.

Air Dry

Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling the shaker cup. Ensure there is no moisture left to prevent the growth of bacteria.

Regular Maintenance

Clean your shaker cup after each use to prevent the buildup of residue and odors. Regular cleaning also helps extend the lifespan of your shaker cup.

By following these simple steps and incorporating regular cleaning into your routine, you can keep your shaker cup in perfect condition, ensuring a fresh and enjoyable experience every time you use it.
