How to clean the inside of this Bota bag ?

I only put water in my bag. As such, a thorough rinsing with water is all I imagine it needs. Sadly though, both of my bags seem to have a very slow leak in them. I presume it’s from the stitching or some other manufacturing cause. They’ve never been punctured since I’ve owned them.

Is this bag make with goatskin or something else?

Its not expensive enough for Goatskin. Latex inside, Imitation leather outside.

What is the capacity of this bota bag?

The full capacity of the one shown is 1 liter. There is another one with a capacity of 2 liters. I have two of the 1 liter models and the most aggravating trait that they both share is that they both leak. This is not due to use or abuse; they came this way straight out of the womb.

can you get the bag wet, to keep it cold?

tradtionally, yes. however, if the leather has dye, it will rub off. but tradtionally cured wineskins are made to be used this way. including a small amount of evaporation of H2O from the wine, itself. H2O molecules are HUGE compared to alcohol molecules so water can breathe out, but not alcohol. small bota for wine, larger for water. keep in mind that if the bota isn't lined with something impervious to liquids, nasty tanning chemicals from leather will muck up your drink and make you sick over time.

Wash the bag out.

A pretty good product.For those complaining of a plastic taste, wash it. I used a dab of soap with hot water and shook the bag. No plastic taste after that.I like it. Gets the job done. I'll also use it for a Renaissance Festival.

Good Bota

My Bota has not had any leaking problems and is the perfect size for my hunting pack. Water tasted like plastic but leaving baking soda and water in it for a few days helped.

Great quality, functional and great value

I like these a lot. I bring it with me hiking and it slings across my shoulder. It is flexible (not hard) like a canteen. It never leeks and it is easy to drink from. It is quality is good, it is functional and it is a decent value.I also feel like Frodo or Sam when I stop to quench my thirst.

LEAKING!

LEAKING! Bought 2 of these, one is leaking. Filled with water and left overnight but leaks from the neck. Bought 2 of these because they use this same item for mule rides at the Grand Canyon. The parks service requires everyone riding mules to use this for drinking water (they give it to you when you sign-up), so I've tried them in the past for this reason. Drinking water from these tastes horribly like plastic! The parks service knows this and tells you to rinse your bag with lemon juice water the night before, but unfortunately it does not resolve the horrible plastic taste. Bought these to prepare for an upcoming trip to the Grand Canyon. I thought I would try to remove the plastic taste by multiple days of rinsing with water, but now see that one is leaking. Would not recommend this.
