How do you open the canister?

Hold the upper ridge of the wooden column and the bottom ridge with the other, then twist apart. Then dissemble the metal grinder to set it as wanted. Try first I guess; mine was finer than I wanted.

You can open it on the bottom by unscrewing a few screws if you don't want to use compressed air, btw.

Are you pushing down on the grey button on top of the vacuume cleaner beside the handle? You have to push the button down, then pull the canister out. The top fits more snug than the last one I had. I have to hold the canister between my knees, then turn the top and pull it up. I'm hoping it will get easier the more times I do it! Hope this information is helpful :0)

Push the straw up and firmly attach it to the hole in the center at the bottom of the cannister cover.Hope this helps.

Sorry you are having trouble. This is what I do. I put down several pieces of paper towels on my counter. Set the Cans on it. I then take a straight slot screwdriver and go under the lip of the cans use it a lever. I don't open the cans all the way just enough so it pops the lid up. Then I hold the top of the can closed with a couple of fingers and shake to activate the gel. Then I take the screwdriver again and just barely have to use it to finish opening the cans. Light and enjoy!

You are suppose to unlock it first then lift up the other two handles. Once you lift it up the lid will pop up by itself.

There is a flap on the top near the front. You just snap it open, fill it, and snap it closed. Couldn't be easier.

Mine opened just not easily. I held the unit in both hands and pressed in the direction of the arrow with both thumbs. It required more pressure than I expected. Good luck!

I believe Dawn has the right answer, but if you cannot open the top to remove the inner protective seal, flip the unit upside down and drill a series of small holes. Cover the holes you created with duct tape or place the container in a large zip lock bag when not in use. You should be able to find the instructions and precautions on the Internet.

To open the box, just slide it around. The lid is attached somehow on the top and it just slides back to reveal the contents.

hold it horizontally (not vertically as typical opener) squeeze tight and turn nob, it takes a couple times around the can (sometimes going in the reverse direction helps)

Slide the red button on the side of the canister. The bottom will open and then you can dump the dirt.

You need to push in the black tab located on the motor side of the canister just below the housing lid while unscrewing it.

Same here, but we got them close..now HOW DO YOU OPEN IT? I'm afraid that when I bottle the Kombucha I wont be able to open them again.

On the backside are two small holes, and a "tool" is delivered with the unit. It is a slip of plastic, with two pins to fit in the holes.You just have to twist the lid to open it, the trick is to get hold on that thing.

There are directions right on the large sticker on the canister itself. Also there is a manual that came with the vacumn. It's very simple.
