Baby Bottle Sterilizers(226)

How long should a baby bottle stay in a sterilizer?

Baby bottles can be sterilized using a sterilizer in five to 10 minutes, depending on the kind of sterilizer and the warmth of the water inside of it. After the bottle has been properly sterilized, it will remain sterile for up to 24 hours and should not have to be re-sterilized until its next use.

How do I dry sterilized baby bottles?

Sterilized baby bottles don't need a routine drying process like other dishes. Due to the sterilization process, the baby bottles should be completely clean and germ-free post-sterilization even if there is extra water left in the bottles after cleaning. To keep the bottles sterile and protected, place them in a sealed container in the fridge after sterilization and keep them there until you intend to use them again.

How do I properly clean a baby bottle sterilizer?

To clean your sterilizer, use a wet or mostly damp washcloth and wipe it down thoroughly, making sure to remove any baby bottles or breast pumping parts first. After you wipe it down, you can use white vinegar or a combination of vinegar and water in the water compartment and allow it to run for as long as you'd like. This process will remove any germs from the sterilizer itself and make it ready for its next use.
