HALP! My nut sack smells REALLY really bad.
So I got an amazing nut sack. I got it mainly to make almond milk, and it is working great. I can squeeze it to get it all out and not just sit there waiting for it to drain. I have used it several times now. The problem is it is starting to smell moldy, I suppose like moldy nuts. It is pretty bad and I don't want to use it as I don't want to get sick or even make the milk taste bad. I don't want to put in the dishwasher cause it may melt. And I don't want to put it in the washing maching cause it might get torn up, or then make the milk taste like detergent(had this happen with an old cheese cloth bag). Any ideas what I can clean this with? That won't make the milk taste bad. Thanks. This is the type of sack I am referring to:

Get yourself a brush, some soap and some sink.

I would try using a small amount of bleach diluted with a good bit of water, soak it and rinse very thoroughly.

You could let it dry out and then try and shake out all the nut dust.
You could also switch over to a nut bag made out of 100% hemp. I've read that it has a natural mildew-resistant quality.
Good luck with your nut sack. I hope you can get it to smell better soon bro.

I thought about using bleach, but was worried it may effect the taste or damage the sack. How much bleach with how much water should I use? I hate bleach, seems whenever I use that I find bleach white spots on my clothes later on. But I may have to try it.Originally Posted by Dujin77
No way am I going to scrub all the noooks and crannys with a brush. And I don't want to use vinegar, cause I used that to clean a coffeemaker once and my coffee smelled/tasted like vinegar for a week.2 time survivor of The Great Misc Outages of 2022

I've used vinegar on my coffee maker. You just have to run it through several drip cycles with water only. I imagine rinsing your nut sack off really well after the fact would have the same effect. In the end, it's your nut sack, and how you choose to handle it is up to you...Originally Posted by desslok

How is this not a 5 star thread yet?
Dess, I'm sorry to hear about the odor emanating from your nut sack. The advice from the nut sack creator is "To clean: turn the bag inside out, empty the contents and wash with water or a drop of dish soap. Hang to dry."
My advice however is a little different: Rub your sack repeatedly, with a nice gentle soap. Really get a good lather going. Don't be mad at it, just let it know that you care about it, and want it to smell nice.
Wait...What were we talking about?

I agree with the bleach it is your friend. I believe the mix is 1 table spoon to 1 gallon. I soak my water jug for work in warm bleach water every couple of weeks or so. plenty of cold water rinsing afterwards and never any bleach taste, good look.
lift as hard as possible!
