Hydro Flask Standard Mouth
Our metal water bottle pick
Hydro Flask Hydro Flask has exploded in popularity in the last few years due to its double insulation and durable stainless steel materials. Hydro Flask bottles keep liquids cool for up to 24 hours and hot drinks warm up to 12 hours.

They're tough enough to toss into bags and survive the hustle and bustle of your days, and Hydro Flask vacuum-insulated bottles resist condensation, so the outside of your bottle will stay dry. This bottle comes with a standard lid, but you can always mix and match.

Our filtered water bottle pick
Lifestraw LifeStraw is a go-to for outdoorsy folk, and rightfully so: This reusable bottle uses a two-stage filtration system that can remove nearly 100 percent of bacteria and parasites in natural bodies of water, as well as chemicals such as chlorine and pesticides.

A single charge on the Larq can give you up to two full months of use, assuming you send it through three to four cleaning cycles (in normal mode) per day. If you use adventure mode, the charge will last up to 12 days. 

How did I test these self-cleaning water bottles? 
I tested three UV-powered self-sanitizing water bottles -- the Larq bottle, the CrazyCap bottle and the Mahaton bottle (which is on Kickstarter, but is fully funded and already shipping products) -- using the tap water from my apartment's kitchen sink. 

Andrew Hoyle/CNET Using the iPhone 11 Pro's super wide-angle lens, I placed these rocks in the foreground in the lower third of this image, leaving space for the mountains in the background. I shot this in JPEG using the iPhone's standard camera app and made some light edits to exposure and color in Lightroom.

Dirt and dust can also confuse a robot's array of sensors. Whether your vacuum uses lidar, an optical system or basic navigation hardware, it won't run properly if it can't see or sense its surroundings. 

This shot was taken halfway into my climb up Stac Pollaidh using the iPhone's panorama mode. Despite using the 2x telephoto mode for a closer look on the mountains and lochs, I still captured a wide scene. 

Chris Monroe/CNET Oxo Cold Brew Coffee Maker
A breeze to operate, the $49 Oxo Good Grips Cold Brew Coffee Maker offers an easy way to steep and strain grounds at room temperature. The cold brew the Oxo Good Grips makes is consistently strong, sweet and with deliciously low acidity. To add an additional layer of filtration, Oxo Good Grips bundles paper filters that can aid the brewer's stainless-steel mesh reusable filter. If you want to make hot tea, the Good Grips can also be used as a tea infuser.

Some gadgets even create cold brew in a fraction of the time it usually takes. The $109 Gourmia Cold Brew and $129 Dash Rapid are excellent examples. Both countertop machines complete the process in minutes, not hours.   

id="article-body" class="row" section="article-body"> Typical reusable water bottles are shaped as if manufacturers don't want you to clean them, ever. Most of them don't fit a standard kitchen scrubber, let alone your hand and a sponge. I suppose you could buy a special bottle brush, but hear me out -- what if you never had to clean your reusable water bottle ever again? That could be your reality with a UV-powered self-sanitizing water bottle. 

I usually don't buy bottled water, and I don't have a faucet filter, so I often drink this tap water unaltered. I thoroughly cleaned each bottle and charged them overnight to ensure they were ready for testing. Then, I used each bottle for three days in place of my normal stainless steel reusable bottle. 

And if you'd rather not spend that much, there are plenty of cheaper, yet just as durable, alternatives. Oxo's $49 cold brewer is affordable and easy to operate, and makes excellent cold-brew coffee concentrate. Likewise, the $24 Takeya and $30 Bialetti pitchers also have prices that are easy to swallow. Traditional cold brewers like those require at least 12 hours to produce their beverages, but devotees will tell you the stuff is worth the wait.

Gourmia Cold Brew Coffee Maker
Need your tall glass of cold brew fast? Then the $109 Gourmia Cold Brew Coffee Maker is right up your alley. The vacuum pump-powered electric appliance can brew your beverage in 4 minutes flat. That's a ridiculously short time to create and pour cold brew in, but as you might expect, When you have just about any questions with regards to where by in addition to the way to make use of ear hair Trimmer, you possibly can e-mail us on our web-site. the taste of those 4-minute brews is weak. Fortunately, maxing the brew time out to 15 minutes produces a much stronger drink. And that's still not long to wait compared with the 12 hours of steeping that cold brewing usually takes.

The only major difference between the three? The Larq and the CrazyCap both have two modes, while the Mahaton only has one. If you plan on using your self-cleaning water bottle with outdoor sources of water, you may want to opt for the Larq or the CrazyCap since they have overdrive modes that kill even more micro-organisms.
