How do you try your siphon tubes?
How do you try your siphon tubes?
I left mine hanging for a few days, but it still retained some moisture.

I rinse them well and then do the helicopter dance; that gets almost all of the moisture out. I then hang them and they dry over a few days.

Same thing - i rinse them out - give the windmill treatment - and let the air dry. Once they are dry i return them back to my corkidor.

After I rinse them, I shoot a cotton ball thru with air from my nail gun compressor.

Never thought about that. Sounds like too much fun not to try that one.
