CamelBak Hydration Pack Cleaning Kit

CamelBak Hydration Pack Cleaning Kit description

CamelBak's Hydration Pack Cleaning Kit makes it easy for you to clean out that mossy stuff growing in your water reservoir.

Bottom Line: Use the brushes, tablets, and reservoir dryer in CamelBak's Hydration Pack Cleaning Kit and restore your water reservoir to clean-as-new condition.

I bought this to clean the inside of the tube because I had some gatorade and it got sticky. The big brush worked fine. The "worm" brush is a pain to get through the tube if the inside is sticky like in my situation. The cleaning tablet worked alright but failed to clean up the Gatorade.Bottom line: Don't put sweetened beverages in the CamelBak.

I haven't used the cleaning tablets yet, but the new plastic pieces to help dry the reservoir are designed much better than what I had before (some sort of foldable plastic tree that fit inside; also made by CamelBak). The tube brush does the job, although it can be a little challenging to push the brush all the way to the end. I still can't get the tube to dry on the inside, especially when keeping it attached to the reservoir, as pictured in the instructions for this cleaning kit.

I left some Emergen-C water in my camelbak and didn't like the left over taste. The cleaning tablets got rid of that, and the tube brush was easy enough to use. The water tastes much better now.
