Baby steriliser

make sure to take off the O-rings them baby sterilisers get hot and will probably destroy them
 
Will a ultrasonic cleaner do liquid bottles and also won't the ultrasonic cleaner also damage o-rings etc.

i would personally take the O-rings off and give them a wash by hand as heat and vibration might break down the rubber over time i would have thought bottles would be ok but dont own one so cant say for certain

Ultra sonic cleaners don't heat the liquid so as long as the water you put in isn't too hot it won't hurt the o-rings at all. I tend to go for hand hot by half boiling a kettle then just test it first with my finger.

The only part I actually do in it is the deck and I leave the o-riing on because you're more likely to break it trying to remove it. Afterwards I give it a blow with a can of compressed air then once I start dry firing the coils that finishes off drying everything.

The rest of the tank I just clean with a combination of kitchen roll and a wet wipe.

Ultrasonic Cleaner will do small bottles and on Tanks I have come across no damage at all on seals / O-Rings, I use warm water with a couple of drops washing up liquid and when its finished I dry with paper towel :)

i stand corrected :2thumbsup:
 
First of all I don't think sterilising a baby is a good idea!

But a steriliser is not going to clean as such isn't it just going to err sterilise.
I use a ultrasonic with some warm water works a treat.
 
I use an ultrasonic machine too.

But I would give a try to that steriliser, just metal and glass parts. However, as @itscostingme said, will not clean as the pieces are not even submerged in liquid.
