Funnel and Cover for Formula Pro Advanced: Care Guide

Quick Answer

Clean the funnel and cover after every 4 bottles and replace them when they show wear, such as cracks or mineral buildup, to prevent clogs and ensure accurate formula mixing.

Step-by-Step Funnel and Cover Care

1. Remove and Rinse Immediately After Use: After every 4 bottles, lift the funnel and cover off the machine. Rinse under warm running water to remove wet powder residue. Don't let it dry on, as that makes cleaning harder.
2. Wash with Mild Soap and a Soft Brush: Use a soft bottle brush and mild dish soap to scrub the funnel's interior and the cover's underside. Pay attention to the small powder exit hole. Avoid abrasive pads that can scratch the plastic. Scratches can trap bacteria and cause clogs; always use a soft brush.
3. Rinse Thoroughly and Air Dry Completely: Rinse all soap off with warm water. Shake off excess water and place on a drying rack. Ensure every part is fully dry before reassembling. Moisture can lead to mold or powder clumping.
4. Inspect for Wear and Replace When Needed: Check for cracks, warping, or mineral buildup. If you see any, replace the funnel and cover. A spare set (like the Funnel and Cover for the Formula Pro Advanced) lets you swap instantly. A damaged funnel can cause inaccurate formula mixing — replace at the first sign of wear.
