Human hot shot method 🥛

For those who make up their bottles doing their own hot shot method, do you keep you cooled boiled water in the fridge or just at room temperature? Please can you tell me your ratios for hot/cooled for a 120ml and a 150ml feed? If you’re keeping the cooled boiled water at room temp, how long is it safe to use?

We keep our cooled boiled water at room temp, and it's good for 24 hours. Baby is on 6oz at the moment, so we do 4.5oz of cooled boiled water and 1.5oz of boiled water and then add the formula. If we do 7oz, we do 5oz cooled and 2oz boiled x For 4oz (120ml), I would personally do 3oz cooled and 1oz boiled. It does depend on the temperature you want the bottle to be. If we need it to be cooler, then we do less boiled and vice versa x

@Seonag what do you put your cooled water in? A flask? A bottle?

@Alana I pour boiled water straight into our babies bottles and let it cool in them xxx

room temp, have a separate bottle i pour the boiling water into to let to cool then have 2 separate bottles to measure by it out

Cool boiled in the fridge so it makes the milk a perfect temp for feeding straight away. My girls don’t like being left waiting for bottles to cool 😆 120ml I do 60ml hot 60ml cold 150ml I do 90ml hot 60ml cold

I use my nuby to cool the water for the first bottle of the day and then keep it filled up for bottles later on and same with thermos- use a hot shot from kettle for first bottle and then fill a thermos for next few bottles. I do this twice a day so no waiting. If going out I’ll transfer the cooled boiled water into a spare baby bottle. I always keep mine out on the side- never felt the need to refrigerate as its just water
