Quick Answer
Hand wash your S'well Carafe with Lid in warm, soapy water using a soft sponge, and dry it thoroughly before storing.
Why Hand Washing Is Best
Your S'well Carafe features triple-wall insulation that keeps drinks cold for 24 hours or hot for 12 hours. To preserve that performance, avoid dishwashers, which can damage the vacuum seal over time. Gentle hand washing keeps the carafe working at its best for years.
What to Avoid
Skip abrasive scrubbers and harsh detergents—they can scratch the exterior finish. Also, never submerge the carafe in water for long periods, as moisture can seep into the lid mechanism. Stick to quick, thorough washes.
Step-by-Step Cleaning Guide
- Rinse Immediately: After use, rinse the carafe and lid with warm water to remove residue. Avoid letting drinks dry inside. Rinsing early prevents stains and odors from setting.
- Wash with Mild Soap: Fill the carafe with warm water and a drop of mild dish soap. Use a soft sponge or bottle brush to clean the interior and exterior. For the lid, wash the top and underside gently. Never use abrasive pads—they can scratch the surface.
- Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse all soap residue from the carafe and lid with clean warm water. Soap left behind can affect the taste of your next drink. Check that the water runs clear before drying.
- Dry Completely: Turn the carafe upside down on a drying rack and let the lid air-dry separately. Ensure both are fully dry before reassembling or storing. Moisture trapped in the lid can cause mold—dry it completely.
