how do you clean a bottom feeder out?

[Cmlswa]

i was wondering what everyone's best tips are for cleaning out their bottom feeder for a new fluid. I have a reo mini woodvil and when i switch flavors i clean the bottle out with water and squeeze it out to try to flush the water out of the tubing and top. that doesn't work that well.

thanks everyone

It's handy to have extra bottles around to switch up flavors. You can just rinse them with hot water, unless it was a stubborn flavor like cinnamon or something.

The tubing in my old Reo I always just used a syringe and flushed it out with hot water multiple times. Sometimes I would fill up the bottle with hot water and then squeeze it to run the water through the other way too. Then just use a paper towel to clean off the top and then blow through the top to get the rest of the water out of the tubing. It's a good idea every so often to take out that little o-ring in the cap and rinse it off...be warned though, it's a PITA to get back in there. And even more a PITA to get the cap back on the tube.
