Bottle steriliser

I’ve been trying out my Tommee Tippee steriliser and noticed that after there’s still some water droplets in the bottles / teats. Obviously I can’t dry these with a towel so does anyone have any tips of how to dry before use please? Would you recommend a steriliser and dryer combo?

Thanks in advance

I had a tommee tippee and used to dry it with kitchen roll, ended up changing bottles to dr brown and buying the steriliser that sterilises and dries and it’s fab x

I have a nubby steriliser, found the trick is to lift the lid as soon as it clicks off it then drys the bottles, if I miss it and they come out wet I just air dye on a clean tea towel

We don't dry ours, just shake of the excess water as it's sterile water.

We used to have tea towels specifically for the bottles because they did this.

This! Smile

Makes no difference if there's a few drops inside as it's sterile anyway. Once I'd made the bottles up and had the lids on I just used to stand them on a clean, dry tea towel on the unit where I kept the perfect prep/formula.

Like pp's have said... just gently shake the excess water out.

It’s sterile so doesn’t matter

Amazing thank you so much for the replies. I did think as it was sterile it would be ok but thought I would check 😁
