Iroshizuku caps are known for breaking.

 

The ink on the bottle threads will sometimes dry, sticking the bottle to the cap and making it difficult to open. The cap can crack when trying to unscrew it.

 

Over tightening the cap can also crack it. I've also heard of the cap cracking for no apparent reason.

 

I play it safe by wiping down the bottle threads with a lightly damped cloth and tightening the cap no more than necessary. I have thought about buying an empty Iroshizuku bottle in the event that this unfortunate occurs happens.

If the ink dries on the rim of the bottle opening or the threads, I can understand the breaking of the cap. Has happened with me too. I gradually apply pressure to open it when that happens.

There we go again: after a week of holidays I emptied my Vac yesterday. So...

9th fill (Vac with 1.1 stub)

And we're clearly in the label-zone

Yeah, the real excitement now won't come until we reach the little indentation at the end. The bets are up as to what method KaB will use to get the very last drops out of there.

Anticlimatic? I'm on tenterhooks over here waiting for the ink to be level with the top of the K of "tsuki". I think it might be two more fills, but that may depend on whether the Vac 700 comes in for a drink...

(I'm a little upset. The wall is still the same . . . :mellow: )

Have a look at my pictures when I was in the race, the background has been the same since the past 8 years, same color. :D
