Why not just blend a couple of lemons and let them sit there for a while?

A lot of brains could do with a good shake-up ;)

Maybe baking soda & hot water, & also sit in the sun for a few hours?

I let it dry out overnight everytime (basically because it's an odd shape so I dry it up one way and then the other for a few hours).Honestly it completely mings.It's a design fault that there is a little groved that runs round the bottom you can't get your dish brush in, so I always try and get it as clean as possible but I don't want to think what greeblies are lurking.I let it soak in white vinegar to mute it as much as possible.
