As reported by BrilioFood on Saturday (11/9), gallon dispensers can remain sterile and odor-free even if cleaned without disassembly. The method is to simply turn off the on-off button on the dispenser. Then drain the remaining water by opening the hole (drain valve) at the back of the dispenser, then collect the water that comes out of the hole. Then close it again.
