Notes from the Sink: The One Brush That Solves Your Most Annoying Washing-Up Problems

You know the ones. The vase  that's been sitting on the draining board for three days because nobody wants to deal with it. The cafetière that needs a proper clean but a standard brush just won't do it. The beer glasses that need a proper clean. The blender jug where you'd rather not put your fingers near the blades.

We designed the LoofCo Wide Bottle Brush for exactly these jobs. Inspired by traditional brush-making techniques and handmade in Sri Lanka from natural sisal fibres, it's the one brush that makes all those awkward containers genuinely easy to clean. Simply swish and clean!

Vases — Finally

The vase problem is universal. Flowers wilt, water goes murky, and suddenly you're faced with a grubby vessel that no standard brush will fit. The Wide Bottle Brush's soft sisal head swirls gently around the inside, lifting residue without scratching the glass. No more leaving it "to soak" indefinitely.

Cafetières & Coffee Presses

Coffee oils and grounds collect at the base and around the sides of a cafetière in a way that a quick rinse simply doesn't shift. The wide sisal head reaches the bottom and works around the sides in a few easy swirls — a proper clean, not just a rinse. Your morning coffee will thank you.

Blender Jugs & Smoothie Makers

Cleaning a blender jug by hand is one of those jobs that nobody enjoys — particularly when the blades are involved. The Wide Bottle Brush keeps fingers safely away while the wide head reaches the bottom and sides in one easy motion. Effective, safe, and far less stressful than the alternative.

Beer Glasses & Glass Tumblers

A standard bottle brush is too narrow; a washing-up brush can't reach the bottom. The Wide Bottle Brush fits perfectly into beer glasses and glass tumblers, with soft sisal fibres that are gentle on glass but effective at removing residue. For anyone who takes their glassware seriously, it's a must.

Mason Jars & Wide-Neck Bottles

Wide-mouth mason jars and kilner jars are brilliant for storage — and notoriously awkward to clean properly. The Wide Bottle Brush fits where others don't, making light work of jars that have held everything from homemade jam to overnight oats.

Why It Works So Well

The secret is in the design. Inspired by traditional brush-making craft and handmade in Sri Lanka, the LoofCo Wide Bottle Brush combines:

• Soft natural sisal fibres — gentle on delicate glassware, effective on residue, and completely plastic-free
• Sturdy galvanised metal handle — holds its shape wash after wash, built to last
• Hanging loop — rinse, hang, dry, and it's ready to go again
• Biodegradable & recyclable — when it finally wears out, the sisal fibres biodegrade and the metal handle can be recycled

One brush. Every container you've been avoiding. Consider them sorted. 🌿
