I hold it with the threads facing the ceiling, drip tip to mouth, head tilted back like I'm trying to see if I can hit the roof with the juice
I mentioned this in another thread but I found the best thing ever for always getting the rubber seal back in perfectly. Try using the fat end of the post from another Phoenix!! Perfect fit, easy to apply the same amount of pressure at every point.I have some spares lying around now that my uncle gave me the Phoenixes that broke on him.
Edited to add: Deb (and anyone else who wants to know) how high you tilt it when you blow it out isn't really that important. Just so long as the threaded end is higher than the other end. Otherwise, you're just blowing more juice into the airway since it's all located at the bottom of the carto.
I cut up an old Bic Pen (without Ink, of course) it slips right in, and seals the plug "Square" in the tube. A small round file acts as a "Drift" to center the air tube while I press down the seal...
