Hey guys, awhile back I posted that my 1" diameter blowoff tube got stuck in the neck of my 1 gallon carboy. I pulled the thing and twisted it for about 10 minutes, but couldn't get the damn thing off. I got frustrated and took out a razor blade and sliced through it, leaving about an inch length in the actual mouth/neck of the carboy. I put on my screw cap and airlock and put it in the closet and forgot about it.
Welllll, this coming weekend will be the 3rd full week in the primary. I know it's done fermenting (Dunkel) and it's definitely ready to bottle.
My predicament is that now I can't get the autosiphon down into the carboy because of the leftover (stuck) piece of blowoff tube.
What can I do here? I don't want to go jamming it down into the carboy for fear of never getting it out, and potentially infecting my beer. I also have no way to grip it and actually pull it out.
Help!
