How To Maintain The Long-term Use Of Glass Bottles

The maintenance methods for long-term use of glass bottles mainly include the following aspects:

Timely cleaning: After each feeding, the bottle should be thoroughly cleaned with a special bottle brush. Warm water helps to speed up the dispersion of grease, so that it falls off the surface of the bottle, and the milk is left with minimal residue. Pay attention to cleaning the bottle mouth thread, bottle bottom and other "hygienic dead corners" that are easily overlooked.
Use cleaning liquid: You can use special bottle cleaning liquid or rice water for cleaning, which will have a more thorough cleaning effect.
Dry out the water: After cleaning, the water in the bottle should be dried and stored in a place that can isolate dust and wait for the next use.

Boiling disinfection: Boiling and disinfection with boiling water every day can effectively prevent the growth of bacteria. Prepare a stainless steel pot, fill it with cold water, and the depth of the water should completely cover the milk utensils. Put the bottle, nipple, bottle cap and other items into the pot, boil for 10 minutes, cool and take out for use.
Steam disinfection: There are many electric steam pots on the market, and you can also perform steam disinfection according to the instructions.

Avoid breakage: Although the material of glass bottles is safe, they are easy to break. Pay attention to safety during use to avoid the bottles from falling or being hit.
Check for damage: Check the bottles regularly for minor damage or cracks. Once found, they should be replaced in time to avoid breaking and hurting the baby during use.

Although glass bottles have a long shelf life, long-term use may accumulate pathogens or residues, affecting the health of the baby. Therefore, it is recommended to replace glass bottles at least once a year.

Avoid hoarding: Do not hoard bottles without cleaning them, because the fat in the milk will harden when attached to the bottles and nipples for a long time, causing lipid hoarding. Once the lipids deteriorate, you need to consider replacing the bottles.
Reasonable purchase: When purchasing glass bottles, you can choose products with good performance such as easy to clean, high temperature resistance, and anti-fall. At the same time, choose the appropriate nipple size and shape according to the baby's age and needs.

Through the above maintenance methods, you can ensure the hygiene and safety of glass bottles during use, and provide protection for the healthy growth of your baby.
