Best formula prep equipment/machine?

[ThisGoldTiger]

I'm a FTM to a little one (15 weeks) who is combo fed. After researching and weighing everything up, I've been prepping 24 hours worth of bottles to store in the fridge.

I follow the formula prep guidelines of boiling the kettle and letting it cool for no more than 30 minutes etc. I'd ideally like to streamline this process a bit more if I can and I've seen various products online like a formula kettle, formula pitcher, prep machine that dispenses just the water, prep machine that dispenses water and weighs out formula too. It's such a minefield and just when I think I've decided on one, I read something that puts me off (thanks chronic overthinking). Which method or product did you find the most effective when prepping several bottles ahead of time?

Thanks in advance!

We tried a few of them and nothing is better than just doing it yourself tbh.

If I had to choose one it would just be one that dishes out water (we were worried about not being able to clean the pipes in the machine properly when formula was involved), but you will be refilling that anyway.

I think that there had been some issues with the Prep Machines not heating the formula up enough to kill any bacteria which may be growing in the formula?

Tbh first time I overthought it all and worried and worried - I didn’t need to. Tomee Tippee prep machine is great and works well for home. I used a nuby rapid cool for on the go and it is also fab. Sometimes I would also use the ready made aptamil bottles for on the go or at night time when v young. Good luck x

Thank you, yes that's the one I was vearing towards!

Haha so easy to question everything isn't it. Yes the Tomee Tippee one was the make I had my eye on for the water only machine. Not a bad price either! Thank you x

This is the thing that's stopped me taking the plunge and buying one. Something I need to consider for sure x
