Keeping decanters clean – ask Decanter

Keeping decanters clean – ask Decanter

September 21, 2016 By Rhino Wino Leave a Comment

Here are some tips to keep your decanter clean and sparkling. The most important rule is to make sure to never leave wine stains in your decanter. Always rinse your decanter with water overnight. For hand-washing, use low-mineral warm water and swirl the water in the decanter. For polishing, keep your decanter above hot water to get steam into the decanter and then clean with a microfiber cloth.

Key Takeaways:

  • If you like your decanter to be clean and sparkling every time, the first rule is never to leave wine residue to dry.
  • When hand washing a crystal decanter, always use soft water with a low mineral content to get that all-important sparkle and help avoid water stains.
  • For perfect brilliance, hold the decanter above a bowl of very hot water, allowing the steam to surround the piece and then polish with a microfibre cloth* until all the steam has been removed.

“I would recommend that liquids are not left inside glass vessels for any length of time so there is not time for them to affect the surface of the glass or leave behind residues.”
