What is Tumbler Benefits

Like other essentials, we can call a steel tumbler a close friend that should have. They usually have 2-3 layers structure, so they have good heat retention effect for both hot and cold foods. The lid design prevents heat loss and air release, increasing its ability to retain heat. They can stay hot for up to 8 hours and cold for up to 12 hours.

The innermost layer of tumbler is made of high-quality stainless steel, so it is safe for human health when preserving food and is easy to clean when used. Not only boiling water, but you can also use the tumbler to hold ice, hot or cold drinks, and preserve some foods such as porridge, soup, etc.

One of the other reasons why you should use a steel tumbler is because it has a compact design that is easy to carry anywhere.

Tips For Steel Tumbler Use

We know that it is easy to use tumbler, but here are some tips that may help:

  • Always remember to pour water about 2 cm away from the top of the bottle so that the heat is released less, this way helps keep the heat longer and does not cause overflow when the lid is closed.
  • Absolutely, you should not store juice, milk or carbonated water with a tumbler.
  • After the first use as well as every day, you should clean the bottle and store it in a cool, room-temperature place.
  • After putting food and water into the bottle, you need to carefully check the car lid, whether it is tightly closed, and whether the lid seals are matched to ensure that water does not leak out.

Tips For Steel Tumbler Care

Not everyone knows how to care for a steel tumbler properly for the first time. There are many people who just rinse it out briefly and use it right away, some people soak it in salt water or wash it with boiled water. However, we will outline all the safest and most scientific ways to use it.

1. Hand-Wash Your Tumbler

We recommend this way because there is no harm to your Tumbler. Hand-washing always ensures the most efficiency and cleanliness for tumblers, because you are the one who washes so you will know where the cup is dirty or if there is a place on the body that needs to be washed thoroughly. 

As you do with any other reusable drinkware, simply give it the good ol’ scrub-and-rinse under the faucet with regular dish soap and tap water. 

2. Deep clean with baking soda and white vinegar

If your steel tumbler is so greasy or dirty that you can't clean it even after many steps, then try deep clean with baking soda. And yes, all you need is baking soda and follow these steps:

  • Use two tablespoons of baking soda and two cups of white vinegar.
  • Carefully mix the ingredients into your tumbler and let the mixture foam up and then settle for about five minutes.
  • Rinse it out with fresh hot water to get rid of any lingering tastes. If the stains aren’t gone after a light scrubbing with a non-metallic brush, rinse and repeat.

What Not To Do To Your Steel Tumbler

1. Stay away from bleach

Bleach will rust your water cup and lead to damage because the very component that makes our steel stainless is easily stripped away by oxidizing agents like those found in bleach, making the cleaning technique actually counterproductive in this case. 

2. Do not use metal brushes

You can use steel wool to scrub other objects such as glassware or plastic, but do not use it on steel. That steel scrub will scratch and corrode the metal on your lovely tumbler. You don't want your personalized mug to be scratched and unusable, right? In addition, scratches will become magnets and make tainting the flavor of any future drinks you put in your tumbler.

Not only that, but those scratches can also produce rust over time, making your tumbler look and taste nasty. To clean your tumbler, we recommend using a plastic brush or a stiff sponge rather than anything metallic.

3. Not microwave safe

This is important for the safety of your microwave. Microwaves can heat other items except those made from metal. When you put metal items in, the waves do not pass through the metal but are reflected back into the oven, which will heat around the microwave surface and lead to an explosion.

Our tumbler is made of stainless steel so it will prevent the heat of the microwave from coming into contact with the liquid inside, and this happens as we warn above. Don't put our water cup in the microwave by yourself, for your safety!

4. Tumble Care Instructions

Our care instructions will always be attachered for each tumbler posted, so just do not do what we list in the picture and you will keep a perfect cup.

As we have recommended above, only hand-wash. In addition, you should not:

  • Rinse tumbler out with dishwasher
  • Do not put in the microwave
  • Do not soak
  • Do not scrub vigorously, leading to scratches on the glass
  • Do not drop tumbler because it will scratch and turn into a mess sure that you don't like at all
  • Do not put tumbler in a place with extreme temperatures
