Need help

[Fidola13]

anyone figure out an easy way of taking off the squeeze tips on the plastic bottles. I keep ruining them when prying them off to wash & reuse the bottles.

Thanks

I use the sharp edge of my paring knife to flip them off without damaging them...

Also just take the ones off the flavor bottles and wash them for reuse. Not need to keep on the flavors unless you are using drops to mix

You might want to be careful not to shake the ex dropper bottle without the tip, it may leak. I seem to remember a problem of that kind. The extra height and surface may complete a (near) liquid tight seal on some blenders containers. I may have noticed increased flavor liquid caught in some caps without the tips after shaking. I don't have any unopened flavors at the moment to test my observations. It seems that, at the very least, a container with a drip tip when shaken will "leak" less juice than one without.

Thanks for that FYI!

Right, some bottles depend on the tip for sealing.
There is a small "nub" inside the cap, at the top, that seals on the tip.

Are you talking about unicorn bottles? If yes I had a devil of a time getting those little buggers off until I learned a simple trick for it. if you use the lid for the Unicorn bottle as a leaver you can pry those unicorn tips off without breaking them quite easily and quickly.
