Cleaning... Anyone Used....

A baby's microwave steam steriliser?

I picked up a small travel sized one of these yesterday in Morrisons reduced to £3.50. I thought it would be handy when my Grand Daughter arrives, but then I started thinking it may be useful for cleaning bits of vaping and mixing gear

I've only ever used a microwave steriliser for baby stuff, it would sterilise but not get rid of any gunk

I was thinking of using it for mixing bottles after they'd been washed/rinsed out to get rid of any residual smells, same with tanks.

 Drip tips, cause I like to keep mine clean

I also thought that the steam may loosen some of the gunk from gunked up coils to make it easier to get off?

It doesnt use pressurised steam though so I don't think it would work, worth a try though

metal & microwaves don't mix, so coils going in a microwave would be a definite No

I got one of these a while ago (from ASDA I think?) to sterilise bottles for storing nic base. I haven't tried it yet, but am hoping it will do the job

I use my ultrasonic bath for cleaning which doubles as my steep enhancer

How do you steep just put bottles in and switch on for how long

Of course

When I am mixing, I just mix a small amount ... 3ml usually.

I then put the bottle in for 3 x 7 minutes with a shake inbetween.

By doing this, I get an idea what the mix will be close to when it has had a good weeks steep (obviously not exactly as leaving it to steep naturally is the best way.)

I can then adjust mixture as needed and to get required flavour for a larger mix.

I use a baby bottle sterilizer for my stuff but mine is electric. As already mentioned you cant put metal in the microwave, well you can but you better run lol.

Does it take away any traces of previous liquid in bottles?
