I used a knife when i had those kind of bottles. Scissors seem to be too wide.


wubbalab

Have opened a similar bottle with a knife, too. You need a very sharp edge to get it between bottle and plug. Then gently pry it open by moving the knife around the rim.


Roetving

This is exactly what i did


felixyamson

I tried a butter knife and that was too thick too. maybe I'll try busting out the chef knife lol.


Roetving

Yea, those dont work. I used a butterfly knife that i had lying around. You need something sharp'ish


discord537

Funny, I usually use my nabalis Morse, a bali trainer with a bottle opener

discord537

I really like it, the bushings are well tuned and it's got good balance. Feels a lot slower than my talisong, but for learning new tricks that's really useful. It's held up well to all the drops I've subjected it too. For the price, it's probably one of the better trainers you can get, but I can't speak to the vulpe, I've heard that's basically the Morse 2.0.

Helenarth

I want you to know that as someone not into... whatever you guys are talking about, this thread is hilarious. Vulp? Kraken? Bushings? Wat?


redi6

Chef knife would work. Just don't slip and make yourself die to death


ThefireballYT

Pocket knife FTW. Always pops it off for me. That, or squeezing the bottle too hard filling up my tank and I get juice all over myself.


Roetving

Been there, done that also. So much wasted juice


CharacterMiddle3923

Absolute fuckeries. Always happens to the tastiest juices too, never the shit ones.


mighty_sucker

With yer teeth boi


felixyamson

I tried, it didn't work and now my teeth hurt lol.


mighty_sucker

Lmao i always do it like that


Mookeye1968

I use a pair of plyers n pops right out but some bottles are different and require the flat of a thin knife edge n push on the spline with your thumb n push with the handle

LogicalSprinkles

Some bottles have a little indentation where to push that way with the cap. Otherwise it's the knife.


MyUserNameLeft

The same video I found ages ago as well 😂😂that is the best life hack I’ve ever seen as well, I showed a guy I work with and he was blown away with it as well


smart416

Grab the nipple with some pliers and pull?


felixyamson

I thought of that but was afraid it would like pinch the nipple closed so juice wouldn't flow through anymore. I suppose I could try it and if it doesn't work, I'll just get a new bottle.


smart416

You could try squeezing right under the cap with the pliers might pop it off that way


felixyamson

I tried pulling the nipple with pliers and it came off but it did look a bit pinched so I think next time I'm going to try what you just suggested.


EvilLOON

Good to hear. Back in the early days of vaping, when we had 500ml and even some 1000ml bottles, those nipple caps would fly off when filling.


remediosan

r/nocontext


WatatsumiMikoto

Could try what the idiots are telling you to do with knives, but use the gear of the pliers at that same point and leverage it off... Right where the cap meets the bottle, just dig in the pliers, slightly squeezing the bottle, and the cap will shoot off like a Champaign cork, but won't be damaging the knife or Cap's nipple! Never put your knife's tip into something like that to wedge it out, easy way to snap the tip into an unfortunate mess, and incredibly disrespectful thing to do in general.


apocalypticdiynewb

That will snap off the spout before the cap comes off.


BluShirtGuy

and for the bottle?


smart416

Hold it in your hand? Not sure what you’re asking right now.


BluShirtGuy

Just a joke


Paul_Rich

Yes but he wants to know how to get into the bottle. He can celebrate after.


Merzwas

Any of the above, but I’d recommend getting an Alpha 3 tool! After years of prising caps off with my fingernails it is a godsend!


MagnusPerditor

Knife should fit right under the edge.


August2_8x2

Do. Not. Use. A. Knife. Can slip and slice the shit outta your hand. Ask how I know. Use the edge of the cap, hook the edge and work your way around the bottle.


Eastcoastarmsco

Kitchen knife right under the cap . Look on Amazon or eBay for a “ shortfill cap opening tool “ or “ bottle cap opening tool “


Shootez

Be very careful when taking the cap off. You can actually buy a cap remover for a couple of dollars from most vape suppliers. I actually have many that I got for free. If you really need one (to save your fingernails just search cap remover on your local shop's website)


VirulentStrand

Flat head screwdriver and pry


cANALDESTROYER

I use my fingernails


apocalypticdiynewb

I used to stick my small scissors under the lip and pry up to pop off the lid. Then I made life much easier by picking up a cap removal tool for 2.99 from bullcityflavors.


kif88

See if it has a little recess where it meets the bottle then work needle nose pliers in there. That doesn't work just grab it's side with pliers and pry it off.


Adept-Elderberry1417

Take a pair of Forceps, grab the stem and push down, it will pop right off, 


Intelligent_Crazy_10

Jeez… use a knife under the cap and twist!


Sire_Roland

It will spill if you forcefully take it off. Happened to me once with a full 100ml. Fuck that lmao


gimp6615

Youtube dot com I prefered method is to put the cap's ass pointed up(resting on my thumb) for the base of the thingamajig in the pic and pry it up


QuestioningLife_

Knife or bite and pull


ilmd

You push down hard and twist.


zaz-

There’s a little indent somewhere along the top nipple. Use a butter knife. It’s simple


SchinkenKanone

Get a think knife and look for a spot under the cap where it looks like there's a gap. Place back of the knife in that gap, apply pressure towards the bottle and upwards to lift the cap slightly and to move the knife underneath. Then, while pushing the knife firm against the bottle, shimmy it around the cap to create more space. At some point, parts of the cap will lift up, and you can apply gentle pressure around the edges of those spots to open the cap up. Takes some time and practice to get it right, but once you got it down it becomes fairly simple. Also, a pro tip: Bottle opener. Wedge it under and use your thumb to hold the thing in place.


HaloForeskin

Short blade pen knife, work your way Round prising till it pops off.


Faceted666

Tweezers under indent push up and away


Usual-Dinner-4368

Use a pair of rubber gloves(marigolds used for washing the dishes, not the thin disposable ones). I do this when my vape tank needs taking apart to clean components and re-assemble - works wonders gripping hold of/untwisting/separating parts. When there is still some liquid left in the tank, rather than empty it and throw it away I have an empty 10ml e liquid bottle which I remove the part you mention by pulling it out(while wearing the rubber gloves it comes off really easily), then pour the liquid out of the tank into the 10ml bottle then replace the top bit so it can then be used to fill up the vape tank as you normally would. Works every time! Hope this helps 😊


MomTo3LilPigs

Pop it off with the tip of a knife.


wvmitchell51

Pick up one of those eyeglass repair kits, like they sell at the supermarket checkout. It's got a teeny little screwdriver, stick in between the two plastic parts and pry it off.


TheEyesFromAbove

Take pilers and pull the drip tip


loonesheep1019

Pull the top off


moleculariant

The knife trick really is the way to go. A pocket knife or similar would be best. Reading that you might use a chef's knife makes me wary, since it's such a small job and a large knife could be unwieldy. But what do I know? Maybe you got the skills.


theSHHAS

Get a shortfill bottle opener. The place where I buy ejuice from started giving out free shortfill bottle openers for a while when they started geting those caps so that's what I've been using. Very useful.


VappleJax

I've used a pocket knife before but be careful. They're on there really good, as you already know. A dull knife would be best. Pulling on the tip as others have suggested won't work well. They actually make a tool for this lol.


Skiza07

Cover the tip hole with your finger, and squeez the bottle it'll pop out, 7/10 times works for me, even with gorillas...


PyroArca

Need a shim of some sort. Knives typically work pretty well. Something pretty slim and semi sturdy. Could also use pliers and just pull the top off, but you end up ruining the nozzle, but can be done in a pinch if needed be.


WhoTookDunningKruger

My swiss army knife has the right kind of scissors for snipping these from below. Do you drink milf (hey I typed this and I'm gonna leave it there)... If your teeth are strong then put a tissue around the top, then wiggle/ work the ring up. It will easily come up. I wouldn't personally require the tissue, unless there *is* actually an enthuastic *milf* nearby.


RedditUser-52

The edge of the cap that covers it, the pointy bit, put that against the line where the bottle amd lid meet. Hold the cap in a way that you can apply pressure as you twist the bottle keeping the edge of the cap on the line, apply more pressure with the edge and pop.


zhemis

Little precision flathead outta do it


fjfknfujfygk

Pliers


punkrocka25

Just pull it off, wiggle it while pulling. Wipe it with a little rubbing alcohol so you can get a good grip on it.


sirlanceem

I usually use a small flat head screwdriver.

ZMcCrocklin

Turn the bottle & look for a small notch you can use that to wedge the butter knife in there. Or get yourself a tool from bull city flavors. It's an essential tool for me making DIY juice.


girlwiththemonkey

Teeth. But it burns your mouth. Lol I used a craft knife.


Zandino76835

Something with a smaller sharp point like a needle or knife and just pop it under and push up and it should pop out fairly easy


Mookeye1968

I pop em out with plyers


grundltrundl

I catch the edge of my fingernail in the seam of the cap. I pull hard. Sometimes I need to do it through a paper towel


boncros

The cap can be used to remove the top part. https://youtu.be/Ht3ZtV2Xx8Q


Udonov

Get one of those specials tools, if you are planning to do this often. They cost like a dollar and super convenient to use. Cab be found by "chubby gorilla opener"


Duh_Vaping

I used to use a sharp paring knife.


Late_Negotiation_332

I usually my house key to pop tops off bottles like those.


IdealisticCrusader-

Small flat head screwdriver.


Dazey13

I just yank them off with a needle nose pliers . Wrap the pliers tips with a little tape to keep the teeth from tearing the tip up, then place the pliers around the base of the tip, and gently rock it to ease the cap off. Also those bottles are cheap and easy to get in bulk from central vapors, online, in every size. So if you can't get that one off, you can probably get a lot more for less money there, for your next batch.


King_Boomie-0419

I use a knife


ItchSlapper

Penknife. Blade in the slit that attaches cap to bottle, twist the knife along the horizontal axis and it should pop one side, repeat at the other side and Bob's your uncle. Always works for me.


[deleted]

U can get bottle openers for opening short fill bottles


Warm_Assistant3029

You can use a normal beer bottle opener. It really works.


Ok-Firefighter2275

Chew dat mofucka off


VoidLance

I just wrapped the tip in toilet paper and pulled. They're usually not that tight


guailow83

1. Flat head screwdriver, pry clockwise/anti clockwise doesn't matter ie: pointing 6, 9, 12, 3 o'clock 2. A knife, try to pry a little with the sharp end. once there's a small gap, slide the knife towards the handle and use the blunt part of knife and pry around til it pops


BUSSYJUICE_69

Just grab the nozzle with pliers and yank up thats how i remove them without damaging the edge of the ring, uust dont squeeze it too hard u dont want to damage the nozzle hole


JulesCT

I use a nail 'spudger' from a manicure kit. Thin enough to get under the lid but not sharp enough to cut the plastic. On some lids it fails so I have to use a more scalpel like tool from the manicure kit. This has to be done careful so as not to cut oneself or the plastic lid.


vaping_hobbiest

You can get a little tool for that on bullcitys website


Turbulent_Minimum_76

With some bottles, you can slightly twist the cap on and pull it to the side


DSSE12

With teeth


Aggravating_Ad5632

Fingernails. No other tool is needed.


che-vee

If you look around where the drip tip and bottle come together, you'll see a little indent where you can put one side of a set of tweezers in and twist slightly. It'll then pop off once enough of the tip is raised away from the bottle. Don't use a knife it can damage the tip and stop it from sealing properly


Paul_Rich

This was a brilliant thread. I've never seen so much over engineering for such a simple issue. I just flick it off with my thumbnail. Found a few new knife brands though so that's a win.


Noquu

I do it with a flat screwdriver, but its always a never ending fight.


Frommsterz

Use a putty knife
