Caring for Your Copper Water Dispenser 

Rinse and Dry: After each use, rinse your copper water dispenser with mild soapy water, then promptly dry them with a soft cloth to prevent oxidation and tarnishing.

Tarnish Removal: If the copper becomes excessively tarnished from being unused for long periods of time. If tarnish appears, follow these steps:

1. Place 4 teaspoons of salt in a shallow bowl.
2. Cut a lemon in half and dip the halves into the salt.
3. Gently rub the inside and outside of the mug in a circular motion using the salted lemon halves.
4. Thoroughly rinse the mug and ensure it is completely dry.

Properties of Copper Vessels and Causes of Blackening

Over time, copper vessels such as bottles and cups may develop a darkened appearance or accumulate a distinct buildup on their inner surfaces. This natural phenomenon arises from the interaction of copper with oxygen in water. When water is left overnight in a copper bottle, trace amounts of copper ions dissolve into the water, a process known as the "Oligodynamic Effect."

Contrarily, copper bottles and utensils are typically coated with lacquer on the exterior to prevent rapid darkening caused by exposure to oxygen in the air. This protective coating helps preserve the appearance and finish of the copperware over time.

It's crucial to understand that the blackening or buildup inside a copper bottle does not indicate any harmful effects. In fact, storing water in copper is a long-standing tradition, which is the primary reason for utilizing copperware.

It's important to recognize that the blackening process is a natural feature of copper and poses no threat.
