I finally ordered a bottom feeder!

Okay,
Back to the bottle problem.I started having the same thing happen...like there was an air bubble,but mostly just couldn't hear the juice going in and just a firm pressure in the bottle,no squonking noise at all.The more I squeezed,then I would get a mess all over the inside of the case etc..I was feeling kinda depressed about it.I took the case off and tried squonking it differently and I gave the bottle a good squeeze sideways and could get a squonk.Hmmm....I finally noticed that one side of my bottle is thinner than the other,no kidding.I positioned the thin side out and it squonks.Thick side out,no squonking and big mess on the inside of case.I still encounter some spillage on the inside occasionally so I'm not sure what that is about.

What kind of feeding method sounds perfect and doesn't include squonking to preserve the life of these little plastic bottles?Tipping it up and squeezing a little or tipping it up,then right side up,then squeeze?

I have bathed the vmod repeatedly.I have probably washed it fully twice now and I've only had it eleven days.

I have been giving mine a nice hot bath about once a week. It just works so much better if I do...but I don t really "have" to. My juice is nearly clear and quite thin. I just like to keep it clean, I guess.

My preferred juice feeding method is to tip the Vmod (I hold it near my ear...a habit I seem to have picked up) and give the meerest of squeezes. Just enough to hear a sort of faint squirk. It just seems to work the best for me.
