What Is the Ceres Chill All-You-Need Washbasin Bag?

• Portable and collapsible – fits easily in your diaper bag or pump bag
• Food-grade silicone – safe for baby items
• Roll-top closure – prevents leaks when transporting
• Easy to clean – dishwasher safe or hand wash

Step-by-Step Instructions for Using the Washbasin Bag

Using the Ceres Chill Washbasin Bag is straightforward, but following these steps will ensure you get the most out of it. First, unroll the bag and open it fully. Place it on a flat, stable surface, like a countertop or table. The bag should stand upright on its own, thanks to its reinforced base.

Next, fill the bag with warm water and add your preferred cleaning solution or soap. Make sure the water level is sufficient to submerge your pump parts. Then, place your disassembled pump parts into the bag, ensuring they are fully covered. Let them soak for a few minutes to loosen milk residue, then use a brush or your hands to gently scrub each part.

After washing, rinse the parts thoroughly with clean water. You can either pour out the soapy water and refill with clean water for rinsing, or use a separate container. Once rinsed, remove the parts and place them on a clean drying rack or towel. Finally, empty the bag, rinse it out, and let it air dry. The bag can be wiped down or washed in the dishwasher for deep cleaning.

• Always use warm water and a gentle, fragrance-free soap to avoid residue
• Disassemble all pump parts before washing to ensure thorough cleaning
• For extra sanitation, use a steam sterilizer after washing
• Let the bag dry completely before folding to prevent mold

Tips for Cleaning Pump Parts on the Go

One of the biggest challenges of pumping away from home is finding a clean place to wash your pump parts. The Ceres Chill All-You-Need Washbasin Bag solves this by giving you a portable basin you can use anywhere. When you're at work or traveling, simply fill the bag with water from a bottle or tap, wash your parts, and rinse—no need to rely on questionable public sinks.

Another tip is to use the bag as a storage container for dirty pump parts until you can wash them. If you're not able to wash immediately, place the used parts in the bag, roll it closed, and stash it in your pump bag. This keeps milk residue from contaminating other items and makes cleanup easier later.

For moms who pump multiple times a day, consider keeping a small bottle of soap and a brush in your pump bag. That way, you have everything you need to use the washbasin bag effectively, no matter where you are. And if you're using the Ceres Chill chiller to store your milk, you can wash the pump parts right alongside it, making your routine even more efficient.

• Pack a travel-sized dish soap and a small bottle brush in your pump bag
• Use the washbasin bag as a temporary holder for used parts
• If you're using a Ceres Chill chiller, clean it in the same bag for convenience

How to Care for Your Washbasin Bag

Proper care will extend the life of your Ceres Chill All-You-Need Washbasin Bag. After each use, empty the water and rinse the bag thoroughly with clean water. You can use a mild soap and a soft sponge to remove any residue. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbers that could scratch the silicone.

For deep cleaning, you can place the bag in the dishwasher on the top rack. The heat and water will sanitize it effectively. If you prefer hand washing, you can boil the bag for a few minutes to sterilize it, but check the manufacturer's instructions first. Always allow the bag to air dry completely before folding and storing it to prevent mold and mildew.

Store the bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. When folded, it takes up minimal space, so you can keep it in your diaper bag, purse, or pump bag. With proper care, your washbasin bag will remain a reliable companion for your pumping journey.

• Rinse immediately after each use to prevent milk residue from drying
• Dishwasher safe – place on the top rack for easy cleaning
• Air dry completely before storing to avoid mold
• Avoid harsh chemicals that can degrade the silicone
