Water bottle help!

So I have one of these bottles for protein shakes. I made one before school on Thursday before class since I was going to the gym after. I drank most of it, but there was a little bit left in the bottom. I mix mine with milk and that little bit sat in the bottom until yesterday when i opened my back pack up.

I cleaned it out and put it through a hot cycle in the dish washer. The smell is like ingrained in the bottle and I don't want to toss it ~_~

How the hell can I get the smell out? Microwave it with some scented soap or something in it? I don't mind if it has a smell to it, but NOT sour milk.

I just don't want to waste gas driving to get a $2 shaker. J/w if there's a way around this.

try letting some vinegar sit in it overnight, and then put it through the dishwasher again.

Buy a big mouthed Nalgene bottle instead.

Is the smell so overwhelming that you couldn't just keep using the shaker anyway?

Or maybe scrubbing it with a baby bottle brush? Been working out for me lately! haha

You need something abrasive + bleach. Try adding a tblsp uncooked rice or dal and a squirt of your dishwasher detergent (contains bleach usually). Add water & shake. If your dishwasher det is a powder, you could just use that directly. If a gel, add the abrasive.

Try rubbing alcohol at about 92% plus sea salt as an abrasive.
