What drill size for Squonk bottle cap?

[ENAUD]

This probably has been asked at some point, but I couldn't find an answer using the search functions. I want to know the best size hole to drill to get a good seal on the tube so I can make up some extra caps for my REO. TIA for any help.

I believe it's 11/64. That's what I used. I used a brad point bit and ran it in reverse to get a nice, clean hole and it's a nice, tight fit .

Thanks! Good tip on running the bit backwards, those brad points will cut and it would avoid making the hole too large.

Thanks for the offer, but I just got 10 bottles from Rob and four tubes. I can drill out one of those if the need arises.
