How are you suppose to exhale? if you do through your nose or mouth don't you breathe the carbon dioxide in again, because it stays in the cup?

Reading the booklet you are trying to work the muscles of breathing to strengthen them! Exhale normal if the Exhale doesn't come out check your valves they maybe in wrong!

I just breath like I do when I'm not using the mask. When I'm really tired, I breath through my mouth. Carbon dioxide leave out the air flow out side.

does pod get moldy if you leave it in for 2nd/3rd cup? I would think so. I drink 2 cups a day and I'd feel uncomfortable leaving pods in there for reuse hours after initial use. Thoughts?

Hard to say. They have to suck the liquid from the lip of the cup. If it doesn't work now, you can always keep it to use a little later.

you inhale using the mouth piece bringing the balls as close to top as possible. Hold for count of 3 then remove mouth from mouthpiece and exhale for count of 4. repeat exercise as tolerated. Best when practiced daily.

When using suction hold them in place till they start to go inside cups when they are snug inside you can let go and the cups will stay in place proceed to suction till either nipple is at end of cup if it feels uncomfortable stop before that point hope this helps you

If given enough time, after the initial few days to let the foam recover it's original form, it inflates fully. Use your mouth and lungs and blow two full breaths in and you'll be fine.

No, it will not allow breathing through your nose if that is what you need. He will continue to breath through his mouth. Be carful with this product. It may give a lot of pain in the jaw Kind regards

I did sometimes, but I realized it was user error. If the mouthpiece is not fully opened and the straw isn't all the way on, you can't get anything out of it. Hope it helps!!! That seemed to help for me :)

When you swallow plastic capsules, always bend over forward so the capsule floats to the back of your throat. If you tip your head back, the capsule floats up away from your esophagus. I learned this in nursing school and can't believe we don't think of this on our own.It looks sort of ridiculous, so I take my pills in private:)

That is not a proper test of the seal. It is designed to allow gases to escape (mostly from the build up of CO2 from freshly roasted coffee.) With that CO2 will come other stuff you can smell, so that is not a way to determine if the seal is correct.

Just use your mouth...only takes a few breaths in each valve to be fully inflated.

quite simple, inhale smoke normally, but then you exhale into the product. You have to create a seal around the opening of the product and blow threw the device. It does take more pressure then a normal exhale because you have to push the smoke through the carbon material. That said, it works remarkably well, reduces odor dramatically and the smoke that goes in comes out as just air

No, you do not press anything. The red center contains a ball inside to keep oxygen from coming into the canister by gravity, but CO2 gas from the coffee can leak out of the canister by forcing the ball our of the way when pressure builds up in the can for escaping coffee gasses.

If you fill the bottle and put it in your refrigerator until it is cold, and then try to carbonate it, more carbon dioxide will dissolve into the water and make it fizzier. Also, when you remove the bottle or the lid, allow the pressure to equalize very slowly. The slower it equalizes, the greater the amount of carbon dioxide that will remain dissolved in the water. I have 4 refill bottles to ensure that I always have a cold bottle to carbonate.

Hi Kevin - my boyfriend says the mouthpiece holds the tongue in a little "caged" slot. The "impressions" (i.e., the upper / lower rows that mold to the teeth) are locked. I.e., you cannot open / close your mouth but only parse your lips. It could work. But if you begin intending to breathe primarily through your mouth, you may find yourself drooling a lot.

Yes...that is what I do. I learned it by trial and error. Just be careful when you blow your nose after using it. Blow your nose GENTLY because there is saline deep in your sinuses. If you blow your nose hard, it will force some water into your sinuses by your ears and it gets a little stuck in there for days. Also, your nose will drain after you do this for about an hour. You will need to have tissues with you at all times. But yes, that is the way to do it

No. But it is easier, because it would take a lot of puffs to blow it up just from your mouth. I used a pump, then topped off w/ breath as needed.
