RE: Some thoughts on ... water bottles
Interesting. So the recommendation from that article (to clean the bottles with hot water at least daily) could possibly be a bad advice? And some plastic bottles may work out for water, but are unsuitable for orange juice and soda water?
Cleaning with hot water shouldn't be a problem (you normally don't drink the cleaning water^^). I would definatly not store orange juice in there - but as said, the leaking depends on the material aswell. Colourless PET for example is inert, meaning that nothing can leak from it.
I did read a while ago that bottled water had an "alarming" amount of micro plastics in it. Anyway, I do take that as support for one of my claims in my post - if one has to go for plastic water bottle, then a cheap colourless PET-bottle is probably one of the best choices.
