Keep your stainless steel cup and lid looking new with this simple cleaning routine. Learn the right steps, common mistakes to avoid, and care tips for your HuskeeSteel V2.

Quick Answer

Clean your 8oz HuskeeSteel Cup & Lid V2 by hand with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive scrubbers and dishwashers to protect the finish and the lid's seal.

Why Hand Washing Matters

The 8oz HuskeeSteel Cup & Lid V2 is built from stainless steel, a material that resists rust and stains but can scratch if handled roughly. The lid, made from a separate material, relies on a tight seal to prevent leaks. Dishwashers and harsh detergents can degrade that seal over time, leading to a less secure fit.

Step-by-Step Cleaning Guide

  1. Rinse Immediately After Use: Empty any leftover liquid and give the cup and lid a quick rinse with warm water. This prevents coffee oils and residue from drying and sticking. Don't let coffee sit for hours—it makes cleaning harder and can leave stains.
  2. Wash with Warm, Soapy Water: Fill the cup with warm water and add a drop of mild dish soap. Use a soft sponge or cloth to clean the interior, exterior, and the lid's entire surface, including the drinking spout and seal area. Avoid steel wool or abrasive pads—they will scratch the stainless steel finish.
  3. Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse the cup and lid under running warm water until all soap residue is gone. Soap left behind can affect the taste of your next drink. Check the lid's seal groove for trapped suds; tilt and rinse it well.
  4. Dry Completely Before Reassembling: Shake off excess water and dry both parts with a lint-free cloth or let them air dry upside down on a dish rack. Make sure the lid is fully dry before putting it back on the cup. Storing the cup with a damp lid can encourage odors or mildew in the seal.
