my bung is stuck

[jaw005]

i cant get the bung out. its to the point where the top of the bung is flush with the top of the better bottle. how do i get this out without hurting the beer?

Cheap coat hanger. Bend it to fit the hook through the hole and pull up. Sanitize first of course.

This happened to me once. I just kept pulling and tugging and it finally loosened up enough to pull out. Spray the sides with sanitizer, it might help loosen it up..

drop some sugar and yeast in there, then plug the bunghole. Stand back.

i used a blow off hose to start with. i wanted to take it off and just put an airlock on it. im just gonna wait until i have to bottle it now. just push it all the way in, siphon the beer out, then attempt to get the bung out.
sound sanitary?

if you pop it thru, you will never ever get it out.

use a screwdriver, use a stainless racking cane, if it's a non-drilled bung, drill a hole in it.
