oui, but some of them plastics absorb some of the soap from the dw so you might want to soak overnight in clean water otherwise your water gets tainted..

We eat lots of tomato based foods thus most of the plastic things we put in the DW (chopping boards and sports bottles) are now orange. We have only recently had a house big enough for a DW and the faff of keepig the nozzles free of black mould is sooo much better.

How strange that we are discussing hygene matters using the French language.

Last year on a long ride one chap took a slug of his drink and nearly puked. He said it tasted of the tablet/powder and couldn't drink it. I always wash mine in the sink (with Ecover or other mild w-u liquid) and never have any problems. Takes a minute or so.

If it's juice, squash, energy drink etc don't leave it in the bottle overnight if you can help it. A bit of mould won't kill you or I'd have been dead years ago.

my bladder's got visible mould in it, presumably its dead form being rinsed with boiling water, but it's not killed me.

I don't find they come out clean, my RRP bottles often have visible mould in them after the dishwasher.

Just clean them by hand with hot water, some WUL and a brush, much easier. Having so many I tend to leave them half full of High 5 for months at a time, never yet caught anything, although I did accidentally take a huge gulp of month-old High 5 at SiTS, it's not very nice.
