Crown tanks leaking

I have two crown tanks-both end up leaking through the airflow holes, started slightly but seems to be getting worse. I always close the airflow when I refill, any ideas?

Try totally dismantling the tank down to the bare glass - o rings and all - and give a thorough cleaning (UC is good for this). You can replace them if necessary with the spares.

Hope this helps!

Look to the top cap, the flat washer gasket in the center gets distorted and out of place, try to center it or as AmandaD says replace. I put my stretched out one in my freezer and it shrank back into shape.

I will try that, once i finish whats in the tank...which considering how fast these go through juice shouldn't take too long. Anyone know how hard it is to replace the oring in the top cap?

A piece of cake, I use a toothpick to get it out and when you put the new one in just lay it in, when you screw the top cap on it will press it into place.

Thanks! Cleaned it, didn't notice anything wrong with the seal, hope cleaning it works.

Make sure all your O-rings are perfect, you get a set underneath the packaging when you open your Crown box. That can help prevent leaking as well.

How about checking with Uwell to see if they will offer customers the ability to purchase a pack of gaskets and O-rings. Looks like the flat washer gasket in the center of the top cap is the one prone to the most ware.

Idk if anyone mentioned, but I have one and it never leaked out the airholes. But those damned orings are so small and when it were still new I noticed they came off easily amd almost lost it a few times. so check all the way around, also I use no less than 90/10 and wicks just fine even when juice is cold. Maybe try raising vg levels
