Troubleshooting

Bottle leaks around the cork.

Ensure the cork is fully inserted and clean. If the cork appears worn or damaged, consider replacing it. Gently warming the cork slightly before insertion can sometimes improve the seal.

Cork is difficult to remove or insert.

Ensure the bottle neck and cork are clean and dry. If the cork is swollen, allow it to air dry completely. Avoid forcing the cork; if it remains too tight, try a gentle twisting motion.

Cloudy residue inside the bottle.

This could be mineral deposits from water or residue from stored liquids. Fill the bottle with warm water and a tablespoon of white vinegar, let it sit for an hour, then wash thoroughly.

Cork develops an odor.

Wash the cork with mild soap and water, ensuring it dries completely. For persistent odors, soak briefly in a dilute vinegar solution, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

These bottles require no assembly. Upon receiving your set, simply handwash each bottle and its cork stopper before first use to ensure hygiene.

Compatibility:

  • Beverages: Suitable for hot and cold beverages including water, juice, wine, coffee, tea, and smoothies.
  • Liquids: Compatible with household liquids such as laundry detergent, fabric softener, dish soap, and cleaning solutions.
  • Storage: Fits well in standard refrigerator doors and pantry shelves due to its slim design.

Care:

  • Handwashing: Recommended for all components (bottle and cork stopper) using mild soap and warm water. This method helps preserve the integrity and appearance of the glass and cork.
  • Dishwasher: The glass bottle itself is dishwasher safe. However, prolonged exposure to high heat and harsh detergents in a dishwasher may degrade the cork stopper over time.
  • Drying: Allow bottles and stoppers to air dry completely before reassembling or storing to prevent mold or mildew, especially on the cork.
  • Cork Maintenance: If the cork becomes dry, it can be gently rubbed with a food-grade mineral oil to restore its flexibility and seal.
