usage

Use it at work or school, while commuting, camping or hiking... anywhere, really! Whatever food or drink you’re packing,--hot or cold--the 20oz thermos has double-walled, vacuum insulation to keep it that way.

Because the bottle is made from high quality, 18/8, food-grade stainless steel and has a 100% stainless interior, it won’t retain or impart flavors no matter what you put in it. That’s a good thing--the tastes of split pea soup, chai tea, and blueberry/banana smoothie simply should not be mixed.

The leakproof stainless loop cap means you can toss it in your bag without a second thought, while the stylish Café Cap (sold separately) converts your bottle into a sleek to-go mug with a quick twist.

When your day is over, the wide mouth, all-stainless threads and rounded corners make cleaning your insulated bottle as simple as giving it a quick scrub with a bottle brush and warm, soapy water.

Washing Your Bottles and Caps This bottle is dishwasher safe, but we recommend handwashing the bottle. The loop top lid is not dishwasher safe, but the cafe cup lid, which may be purchased separately, is.

For daily cleaning, just rinse your bottle with warm, soapy and let it drain and dry in your dish rack with the mouth downward so water can drain out.

For thorough cleaning, you can use warm, soapy water and a bottle brush. We also recommend an old-fashioned cleaner: diluted vinegar or water and baking soda.

Do Klean Kanteens have a liner? No. All Klean Kanteen products are made from high quality, 18/8, food-grade stainless steel that's totally free of BPA and other harmful substances. Because stainless steel is inherently safe, there is no need to coat the inside of the bottle with a plastic or epoxy lining, which is one of the main differences between a stainless steel Klean Kanteen and aluminum bottles.

Why do Klean Kanteen caps have plastic at all? Caps made from solid stainless steel would be both heavy and costly. Caps made from safe, BPA-free polypropylene (pp#5)are lightweight and also cost-effective, enabling Klean Kanteen® to create a handcrafted product of exceptional quality at a reasonable price.

Are the polypropylene (pp#5) caps safe? Klean Kanteen uses polypropylene (pp#5) because it contains no Bisphenol A (BPA), a chemical that leaches from some kinds of plastic and has been linked to various diseases. Polypropylene has no known leaching characteristics and is softer than other types of plastic.

What is stainless steel and what does 18/8 stand for? Stainless steel is an iron-containing alloy made from some of the basic elements found on earth: iron ore, chromium, silicon, nickel, carbon, nitrogen and manganese. The properties of the final metal change depending on varying amounts of these elements. More than 57 stainless steels exist and are sold as standard alloys on the market.

Klean Kanteens are constructed from high-quality, 18/8, food-grade stainless steel. The numbers stand for the percentages of chromium and nickel in the steel, 18% and 8% respectively. Chromium increases the metal's hardness and nickel gives it strength. Together they also make stainless steel highly resistant to stain or rust.

Stainless steel is easy to clean, durable, inert and sanitary. That's why it's the material of choice among the food processing, dairy and brewing industries.

What is nickel and how can it affect my health? Nickel is a naturally abundant element found in the earth's crust, soil and ocean floor. It is generally resistant to corrosion and is therefore used to make metal alloys such as stainless steel.

Approximately 10-15% of the population is sensitive to nickel, but the health effects of nickel are highly dependent on the manner and degree of exposure. The stainless steel used to make Klean Kanteens® has a low nickel content and is the preferred material used by breweries and dairies.

Can I put my Klean Kanteen in the freezer? No. The force of liquids expanding as they freeze can cause your Klean Kanteen to become deformed and can also break the weld that holds the bottle together, so we strongly advise against it. Freezing this bottle will void the one-year warranty against manufacturer defects.
