Camelbaks / packs

Post by essgee23 »

Now how do i clean this fella?

have used a karrimoor recently on a very good grand union canal walk and just realised i didnt drain it or clean it...yuk.


im assuming i drain it, and fill it full of milton sollution to soak and then maybe submerge it in same solution.

is there a technique that i should know and be using?


apologies if i have already missed a post about this....quite impressed with how vast this forum is :shock:

Yep Milton works and is cheaper than Camebacks tablets, you can buy a wire brush as well but i use this method:

Two is one and one is none, but three is even better.

And then keep it in your freezer between use and it doesn't get manky. :D Just get it out in enough time before you need it.

No, after you've thoroughly cleaned it out ( we use Milton sterilising tablets ) just pop it in the freezer until you need it again. Works for us :D
