Why does the open/close tab sometimes feel stiff?

Coffee residue can build up around the cap's moving parts after brewing, especially if the cap is put away without rinsing. If the tab feels tough to open or close after sitting for a day or more, rinsing the cap usually restores smoother movement; for some users, warm water with a little dish soap (and then rinse thoroughly) works even better.

What should I do if the tab becomes hard to open or close?

Hand wash using dish soap and warm water and then rinse thoroughly before next use. To prevent a recurrence, we recommend rinsing the cap with warm water after each brew.

Should I rinse it after every use?

Yes. For best day-to-day performance, rinse the cap after each brew while moving the tab between open and closed positions. A simple rinse while rotating the tab is sufficient for regular cleaning. If the tab feels stiff when opening or closing, hand wash with dish soap and warm water, then rinse thoroughly.
