Learning How To Use A Bottle Scraper

By Phyllis Schroeder


This is a kitchen tool that is used to clean up bottles as its name suggests. Some bottles can be quite long. Reaching the end of them is not easy using the normal cleaning methods. That is why bottle scraper comes in handy. It is made of a long shaft and a rubber head at the end of it so as to make the cleaning much easier.

This head is flexible making it easy to reach corners and other difficult areas. Some bottles have small mouths and since this tool is flexible, it can easily fit through this small space. A while back dairy products were placed in long bottles. This container made reaching the last bits of the drink just impossible. The scraper was then used to obtain this bits.

Most bottles were made with a long neck. The design of cartons for dairy products was not great either. Reaching remains at the end was not possible. There was a demand for the change of all this. That is why most cartons today have a cuboid shape. Bottles are also in a better shape all this adding to the convenience in their use.

In a couple of kitchens, this scraper can still be used. Most times people have been forced to throw away their jars of butter that still have that sweet treasure stuck at the deep corners. This can become quite painful for some people who would want to enjoy the contents up to the very last bit. Those who want to make use of this tool can definitely benefit.

It is not hard to look for this tool. They can easily be found in markets or stores. Not everyone has bought the idea of using this amazing tool though it has its benefits. They decide to use other utensils that they have in their kitchens that could be of help. Spatulas that are made of wood are often the utensils of choice for such people.

This tool is also referred to as a bottle licker. There is no standard price for it. This shows one should not go to the store with a specific price in mind. There are different types of lickers that exist and this what causes the price difference. It is also made of different material and individuals are advised to choose according to their preference.

Different material can be used for the shaft for example stainless steel or even plastic. Steel is considered better since it is durable. Moreover having one made of this means that the scraper will last for a while. This means many more months of service without having to look for a replacement. After using it for cleaning or any other job, it should be cleaned.

Lack of its maintenance will encourage bacterial growth. This shows as you continue usage, you may end up consuming the very same bacteria that you should be avoiding. Shaft length must always be longer than the length of bottles. This means that they will be able to reach the end of most bottles if not all. It is a plus if they are heat resistant
