I had the same problem the first time I tried. Wrapping a wash cloth around the end and a little brute but gentle twisty force was the only thing that worked. Just go for it. It comes with an extra glass.
But after running hot water, banging, even BOILING...it still wouldn't come off! I just broke the glass off (still had a hard time getting the broken glass to come loose).
Took me a while to get mine off. I could twist it, and you could feel it spinning, but no matter how hard I pulled, it wouldn't separate from the top ring. Finally got a bit of space while spinning/pulling and slipped a thin knife blade in there. It was enough to break the seal/vacuum. After that it slipped off. When it finally did, the gasket actually rolled a bit on one side. Looks like the gasket had really attached itself to the glass tank. I made sure to put a bit of VG on the gasket before putting the glass back on.
Don't have a mini but I had the same problem the first time I tried pull pull off the glass. Also had a hard time first time I installed the rba head becaus eof the screws on top. I don't think the mini is like that. You don't have to unscrew the top if I'm not mistaken.
First time on my tanks I had to run hot water on the glass after I put it in freezer for about 15 min
it poped lose since the first time no problem I do juice the o rings my son has one broke the glass but he never washed his before using it good luck
It should say in the instructions (but doesn't) to removed the glass before use and rub some juice on the o rings, once it's had some heat inside, its a bugger to get off. I did that with my second tank and I've never had a problem..
Be careful trying to get the glass off, I cracked the original glass on mine yesterday while washing everything out for a different flavor (accidentally dropped the tank in the sink). Good thing Kanger includes a spare glass section in the box!
