A blender bottle is a shaker container made of plastic with a metallic ball inside that further aids in perfectly blending the contents of the bottle.
Blender bottles can be used to mix a variety of drinks and liquids, including shakes, cold coffee, smoothies, salad dressings, and even various sauces. It makes it simple for you to make drinks that are seamlessly blended while using less electricity.
Keep in mind to rinse the blender bottle after blending liquids because the majority of blender bottles are made of BPA plastics, which have a tendency to absorb and retain the smell of the liquids over time. Considering placing an order for a new blender bottle?
How is a Blender Bottle Dishwasher Safe?
The surgical blade stainless steel blender ball wire whisk that comes with almost every blender bottle moves with the bottle and serves this function primarily.
Both fiber-rich beverages and protein shakes go well with the blender bottle. Dishwashers can be used to clean all blender bottles without risk. It is always advised to place the cup and lid on the top rack of the dishwasher when placing the bottle there.
The wire whisk and the blender ball should be placed in the silverware bin that is used for cleaning. In addition, you can wash your hands in warm water and soap to clean the blender bottle.
After being blended, a lot of nutritional shakes leave an unpleasant smell in the bottle, and a lot of protein shakes leave some powder or residue at the bottom.
If these residues are kept in the bottle for a longer time, they might produce bad odors and cause the bottle to lose its color. In this case, you will need to use other methods to get rid of the residues and bad smell since your dishwasher won’t be able to handle them.
If this occurs, you can use a briquette and some newspaper. Roll the charcoal briquette inside the newspaper, then put it inside the blender bottle.
Place the lid back on and leave it like this for a few days. Then, wash the bottle with warm water and soap.

Going back to the question, “Are blender bottles dishwasher-safe?”
The majority of blender bottles—about 95%—can be cleaned in the dishwasher.
The blender bottle’s parts can all be put in the dishwasher without any issues, but for increased safety, I advise using the top rack for the cup and lid.
While cleaning, it is advised to place the blender ball with the coil whisk in the silverware container.
Using warm water and mild soap, the blender bottle can also be manually cleaned.
Most users would rather hand-clean them than put them in the dishwasher. However, if you put the cup and lid on the top rack of the dishwasher, it is completely safe to do so.
How to Clean a Blender Bottle in a Dishwasher?
Despite the fact that the majority of blender bottles are dishwasher safe, you should still use caution when handling them. Here are a few pointers that, in my own experience, have made it much easier for me to maintain and clean by a blender bottle.
- Manufacturers of blender bottles on the market advise placing the broken bottles’ pieces right into the dishwasher’s utensil tray. Although blender bottles are sturdy, I would advise putting them on the top rack with the cup and lid attached.
- Look over any specific instructions for cleaning that came with your blender bottle to see if there are any. Before using a product, carefully read the user’s manual included in the packaging or on the manufacturer’s website.
- Never use hot or boiling water to rinse the blender bottle. You cannot blend hot liquids with it either. High temperatures shouldn’t be applied to blender bottles. Under no circumstances should it be heated in a microwave. This is the reason I advise everyone to put the blender’s parts on the top rack rather than the bottom. By doing this, you’ll prevent the warm water rising from the dishwasher’s base from touching your bottle.
- Blender bottles are not heat-resistant, as was stated in the preceding tip. When cleaning for odor and residues at the bottom, keep in mind to use lukewarm water rather than hot water. Your bottle could be harmed by hot water.
- In general, only the insulated Radian needs to be manually cleaned by hand, as recommended in the majority of user’s manuals. However, you can still wash all the blender bottle parts in lukewarm water with mild soap. Avoid using soap or detergent that is extremely rough and coarse. The sides of the blender bottle may be harmed as a result.
The blender bottle frequently leaves behind an unfavorable odor, which is one of the main issues that the majority of users encounter when using it.
Protein shakes, smoothies, and even drinks that have been left in the blender bottle after use frequently leave an unpleasant aftertaste and residue at the bottom of the bottle.
They might even stain the blender bottle. The dishwasher cannot completely get rid of this obnoxious smell and any residue left over from the protein and nutrition shakes.
In this situation, I advise you to try the following remedies to get rid of the offensive smell.
- Lumid water should be added to the blender bottle, and a teaspoon of baking soda should be stirred in. Then pour in a quarter teaspoon of vinegar and watch it foam. Allow this mixture to sit for at least ten minutes, flipping the bottle every minute. After rinsing it with warm water, let the mixture air dry. I’ve used this technique to get rid of odors and stinks from blender bottles.
- Any piece of paper can be dampened with vanilla extract or lukewarm water. Place the wet paper inside the blender bottle, and leave it there for 24 hours. To permanently get rid of the smell, rinse with tap water.
- Coffee grounds should be soaked in water for two to three hours before being placed inside the blender bottle. To get rid of the bad smell from the blender bottle, let it sit for 24 hours and then thoroughly rinse with tap water.
There are more such remedies and “Do It Yourself” available on You can use YouTube to get rid of bad odors.
Blender Bottle Pro Stack?
The dishwasher-safe, BPA-free Blender bottle Pro stack has side measurements and a separate 150cc dry storage container.
It is possible to wash this 22-ounce blender bottle in the dishwasher without risk by taking off the lid and setting it on the top shelf.
The additional 150-cc dry storage container that comes with the blender bottle is dishwasher safe as well, but it should be used with appropriate caution as it frequently tends to retain the smell of the blending liquids after use.
To make sure it doesn’t hold onto stains or bad smells, the dry storage container should be thoroughly cleaned with lukewarm water and mild soap.
Conclusion
It is obvious that keeping a blender bottle as clean as possible is simple if you remember to wash it before and after each use and never let anything go bad in the bottle!
As long as they are on the top rack and not a strong wash, you are free to choose to wash your blender bottles in the dishwasher. This will help you avoid damaging your bottle by using an overly abrasive or hot wash, and hopefully it will last you a lot longer.
We hope that our instructions have been useful to you and that you can now better maintain and clean your bottle blender going forward.
