How to Clean Your Stainless Steel Cups
Use soap and water.
But if it gets grungy use Bar Keepers Friend (oxalic acid), it’s the BEST, and once you try it you’ll love it. It’s a scouring powder that comes in a shaker can and can be found with other household cleaners. It’s great for all stainless steel pots, pans and sinks. If you don’t have any, you can try any household scouring powder.
