what about a bottle brush?
you can even get the ones used for toilets (just buy a new one, mind you)

Fill it with suds, cover the top with a large hand or plate/bowl of ≥ circumference, shake and rinse ad nauseum. Nuke it in the microwave to sterilize. Otherwise, place upside down in the dishwasher. Still less than ideal, buthey, a carafe is form over function.

Silly me. Of course one of those might do the trick. See if I can track one up.
Thanks.

Pour some salt in, some detergent, and just a little water so the salt doesn't dissolve fully. Shake it about and let the salt polish the dirt off.

Yeah? Gonna try right away.

Yep. It did the trick, looks brand new again.
Awesome.

Ice cubes and cleanser too.

I got one that's made for washing baby bottles, and it has a mini brush on the other end(for cleaning out the nipples).
I'd recommend that over the regular ones, because I end up using the mini brush far more often.
