I am looking for some ideas on ways to clean out silicone squonk bottles. I will normally just boil them for a few minutes, and that works well as long as I didn't put too powerful of a flavor in it. For more stubborn flavors I will boil for a few minutes, then fill it with baking soda and let it set for a day or two then boil it again. This method works well, but I just wanted to see if there is any faster or more effective ways that some of you may have came across.

I still use vodka on all of my attys, it works for that just fine, I just found baking soda worked better on my silicone bottles.
I will definitely give this a shot.
All seems like too much effort to me. Just rinse out with water and if the flavour hangs around - replace the tube. Tubing is really cheap. It’s not far off replacing a coil cost wise.
I just rinse with hot water.
Keep the fruits in the fruit bottles, the custard/deserts in their own bottles.
Unflavored only in REO bottles.
Store with the caps off.

This tubing works great!

Modmaker in the UK sell two different rolls of silicone tubing., one being thicker than the other but both have the same ID.
Does anyone know how to get rid of the stains? I couldn't care less about the smell of the previous juice, its the badly stained bottles that bother me. Most of the bottles i use now are black so i can't see staining but i still have quite a few proprietary bottles i just cant get clean/back to normal colour.
A friend of mine uses hydrogen peroxide (the 3% concentration kind that is used for cuts and first aid). He fills the bottle with it, lets it stand overnight, then rinses it out several times. He says it works well to get out the stains.
I’ve never tried it myself – I just use warm water to clean out the juice remnants and ignore the stains.
Hate to raise an old thread from the dead but my question doesn't justify a new thread. Just got my first squonk mod, was washing the bottle that it came with, and noticed its new smell. I Googled and found this thread. Read the above.
What is a REO bottle? I Googled that but didn't find anything I thought answered my question. I only vape unflavored juice.
Thanks!
Reo is a brand. They made squonk mods before squonking was popular. They are one of the original squonk mod makers. A Reo bottle is the squonk bottle that came with the Reo mods.
Those bottles probably are hard to come by anymore, so they want to keep them in the best shape possible. Some flavors do not come out of a bottle.

No real reason, it's just my unflavored mod, higher ohm coil in a small atty.
I usually just replace the bottle if the flavor bothers me. And for the REO I highly recommend the Italian soft bottle upgrade if you can still get one. Rob sold them back along, and they may still have them.
Good to know. I thought they would have been semi proprietary.
