Our sleek COBRA alpaca spoon bombillon features a tapered mouthpiece for smooth and comfortable sips - and a stunning spiral engraving from head to toe, leading down to a pear-shaped spoon filter.
Note: It's recommended to clean your bombilla before use, as tiny sediments may remain from the manufacturing process. Alpaca steel is a metal alloy commonly used in South America, and will tarnish and develop a patina with use, giving it a rustic look. To maintain your bombilla and keep it shiny, it must be restored with metal polish (tutorial). This is not to be mistaken with rust.
Dimensions: 7 in. long
FAQs
FAQs
What's The Best Type Of Bombilla?
At Yerba Mate Lab, we only stock spoon bombillas after years of testing different kinds. Why? They offer the best filtration for all types of yerbas, and blow other types (coil, spring, slits) out of the water.
For the best filtration, look for bigger filter heads and ones with more holes, such as our 1000-hole bombas.
How To Clean Bombillas
Bombillas should be cleaned after every use with a thorough rinse under warm water. If made of stainless steel, soap can be used but is not mandatory and should be avoided with other materials.
Every 1-2 months, a deep clean should be done by boiling the bombillas in a pot with a tablespoon of baking soda for about 10 minutes.
Why Is My Bombilla Clogged?
A clogged bombilla can happen for several reasons with the main one being the preparation.
Some important things to note that affect clogging most are:
- allowing the yerba to soak for 3-5 minutes on the initial pour
- positioning the filter correctly at the bottom, under the mountain
If still experiencing clogging, we suggest pulling the bombilla up slightly (out of the water) and seeing if it clears.
