Not sure what you mean by a tip. I'm not good at visuals. There is a metal nipple, then the tube attaches to that, which goes through the top cap into the bottle.

Both pieces can be drilled out with a 11/64 bit.

The bottle with an arrow pointing to it. That's what I have, except the top cap is drilled out, there is a tube going through it and there is an oring inside. I unscrew the bottle and fill it. What's the more optimal way to do this? I'm a dummy, I still don't get it.
I have never looked at the spare bottle until now. There is the bottle, a nipple and a cover. So is what you are saying that some just don't use the screw on cover, but instead insert the tube through the nipple after lopping off the top of the nipple to insert the tube through it. That way you don't have to unscrew the cap, but instead just pop the nipple off with the tube through it?
The pic below is what I have, standard screw top, hole in it, tube though, o-ring

Yes some people pull the tube and do not re glue it. If you do not pull the tube you can either use the bottle cap with an o ring or replace with a nipple dropper insert that is drilled.
Here are the two choices

What do you mean you don't like your tube attached? Trying to picture this.
My Reo has taken several 6' dives. Once in fact it took a 7' dive off my railing in my garage onto the cement floor. The delrin drip tip got scuffed, everything else was fine.
...Sorry for the crooked pic. Sort of like me.![]()
Your phone and mac are auto rotating the pic, ECF does not. Turn that setting off in the mac then you'll see how they will appear on ECF and can use editing software to rotate the pic and save it in the correct orientation.
Heh - and you do what for a living?![]()
There are some little square soy sauce bottles out there that work in our Minis and they hold 6ml of juice. If you're interested in trying them, PM me and I'll send you a handful. They would solve the only "problem" left for you and your Mini.
