What is the best way to clean the mouthpiece?
Remove the cap and soak the mouthpiece in warm soapy water, then use a soft-bristled brush to remove any residue.
Can I use this for hot liquids?

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your bottle for its first use, rinse it thoroughly with warm water and a mild detergent. The Acid Flow DS is compatible with standard bicycle bottle cages due to its universal cylindrical shape. For maintenance, the bottle is dishwasher safe, but ensure your cycle does not exceed 50 degrees Celsius to maintain the structural integrity of the plastic. Hand washing with a bottle brush is recommended to extend the lifespan of the mouthpiece. Always store the bottle with the cap off if it is going to be left for an extended period to ensure the interior dries completely and remains odor-free.
