IMO after the temperature trick, start twisting them in opposite directions. You still have to pull them apart, but my experience has been that twisting and pulling requires a lot less force than just pulling.
Put them in the Hobart, in my experience that works the best. I had a shift say itās better to use the fridge because she thought the cold would work and both cracked
I was gonna say "fill them with tears" but honestly enough people have suggested the Hobart thing that I'm gonna have to try it next time this happens at my store.
Throw them in recycling and order more. Itās such a waste of time to try to fix, and also dangerous. Iām not getting injured for a bougie capri sun shaker.
i had a barista put the bottom half in hot water and ice in the top one, then added salt to the ice and it came unstuck after pulling it, the salt on the ice really helped i think
Put it on a pedestal in the back and treat it like Excalibur. Whoever @pulls the sword from the stoneā becomes the new SM and rightful King of Englandā¦or something.
iāve heard people suggest surrounding the cups in ice (using the 5L pitcher) and then pouring boiling water from the brewer into the cup stuck inside. after you do this science happens and you can twist the cups opposite from each other to release the seal
throw it in the hobart, halfway thru the wash grab it out (ik ur not supposed to open it midway) and throw it on the floor they should pop right apart.
You can try using the hot/cold water to separate them, but in my experience, that works maybe half the time. If you canāt get them apart, break the inner one apart with pliers from the tool chest to save the outer one, and your SSV can order a new one.
Bang bang bang. Knock it against a counter top edge going around the circumference of the shakers. Or try dish soap around the lip of the bottom one and try to twist, return to banging if unsuccessful š
one time this happened to ALL of our shakers at once. We did not have a single one to use, but i looked up a video and just put them in HOT water and put an ice scoop with a bit of water inside the shaker. It should either come apart on its own or with a pull
Ice/ice water in the top cup, run hot water over the bottom cup or dunk it in hot water. The cold makes the top cup contract, and the heat makes the bottom cup expand.
i always submerged it under water so the tiniest bit of water would get inbetween the two and then pop the bitches in the freezer and in about 30 mins it was as easy as twist n pop
The one time I was successful in separating them was when I put it in a container of hot water and then filled the top cup with hot water. They kinda popped apart so be careful
Did the hot and ice suggestion before... no luck. Probably because we tried other methods that just made it worse. We ended up just throwing it out after ordering new ones.
put them in the Hobart and then immediately put a scoop of ice in the top one and pull
This, + if you have a freezer stick it in the freezer, failing that the ice bin. I have unstuck three.

Nuke them by orbit, itās the only way to be sure.
Big ups for the Aliens reference!
Big ups for the Conan the Barbarian reference.
Ice in the inner cup, dunk the bottom one in hot water without getting the inner cup hot. Take out pull
This is what I always did, works great
Test of strength
Find the person that did it and hit them on the head with it until they come apart

Pray.
Back in the hobart. Separate when right out. Alternatively, pour hot water on and around them, then pull apart

Being worthy of ruling Asgard.

Put ice in the top one while pouring hot water over the other one

Opposite, because heat expands and cold shrinks. Heat outer shaker and fill the inner one with ice.

Literally no one cares if you did it. It's a mistake most of us have made at least once lmao.

Leave it by the front till and offer a free drink to whoever separates them
Ice on the inside, hot on the outside
This worked for me a few times but doesnāt always work if theyāre determined to be difficult š

Throw them away, and order new ones.
