Can I use my copper bottle for juice or milk?

NO.

Copper is great for water. It keeps your water safe and clean.

However other liquid like juice and milk is not a great fit for copper.

The reason being, copper is not good with acidic food. Milk has lactic acid. Juices like orange juice have citric acid.

The acid will react with the bottle and ruin the taste of the juice. It is difficult to track which juices have organic acids and which do not. As a rule, avoid all liquids other than water in a copper bottle.

Can I pour hot water into my copper bottle?

NO.

Copper bottles purify your water with oxidization. When you add hot water, the process gets disturbed. Additionally, since copper is a metal it will absorb the heat and it will become difficult to carry a hot water bottle.

While it is fine to fill your copper water bottle with warm water, we recommend against filling it with hot or boiling water.

Hot / boiling water can negatively affect your bottle. Hot water makes the copper reactions faster and potentially cause the water to absorb too much copper from your bottle (the greater the temperature of water, the more capable it is of absorbing metals such as copper).

The healthiest way to use a copper bottle is to drink room temperature or lukewarm water.

Can I put my copper bottle in the freezer?

NO.

We do not recommend using your copper bottle in the freezer. The reactions working to purify your water, happen best at room temperature. Do not freeze as you will lose the benefit.

When it Ayurveda, it recommends drinking room temperature or lukewarm water rather than cold water.
