can we put hot water in copper bottle - #37964
I am struggling with this confusion about copper bottles lately. I bought one a few weeks ago, thinking it would be great for boosting my health and all that! But now I've read different opinions about whether we can put hot water in a copper bottle. Like, some people say it's safe, but others are super adamant against it. I’ve been using it for my morning tea, which I thought was fine, but then my friend mentioned that acidic or hot things might react with the copper—I’m like, wait, what?! Last week, I had a bit of a stomach issue, and I was wondering if it has to do with my copper bottle habits. If can we put hot water in a copper bottle and it’s not really safe, I feel like I might need to change how I’m using this thing. Also, is it bad to keep warm water in there for too long? I’m nervous because I spent a good chunk of money on it, and I thought it was supposed to have all these health benefits. Is there any advice on just how far I can take this? Can we put hot water in copper bottle without worrying about getting sick or anything? Would love to hear anyone’s experiences or knowledge on the best practices for using copper bottles, especially when it comes to heat. Thanks!!

It can be quite puzzling trying to figure out the best ways to use copper bottles safely, with all the mixed information out there. When it comes to your question— putting hot water in a copper bottle—it is generally advised against. Copper has a reactive nature. When you expose it to heat, especially with hot water or other heated liquids, it can react in way that might not be beneficial for you. Ayurveda cherishes the use of copper for its antibacterial and alkalizing properties, but it’s primarily intended for storing room temperature or cool water.
Using hot liquids can sometimes lead to copper leaching more into the water, and this excess copper, when ingested over time, could contribute to symptoms like stomach issues, nausea, or even long-term concerns if the amount becomes excessive. It is especially true for acidic liquids, as they can cause a chemical reaction with the copper, leading to unwanted minerals in your water.
If you’re looking to gain the health benefits of copper, it’s best to fill your copper bottle with room temperature water, allow it to sit for 6 to 8 hours—overnight being a convenient period—and then consume. This way, you let the water absorb the beneficial ions released from the copper safely without the risky reaction of heat or acid.
Regarding your concern about keeping warm water in copper bottles for too long, the principle remains the same. Aim to avoid prolonged exposure of warm or hot water in your copper bottle. Lower temperatures pose less risk of significant copper leaching. If you’re seeking the right usage practices, stick to water and avoid putting tea, coffee, juices, or any acidic beverages.
So, for the best practices, use room temperature water, and drink it after a good 6-8 hours, avoid storing acidic or hot liquids, and if you suspect your copper bottle is contributing to your discomfort, shifting back to these guidelines might help mitigate those effects.
