Ok. So I don't mind setting up and tearing down my diy workshop shop. Aka. Super clean kitchen. Towels at the ready. Distilled water heating. Music playing. A cup of coffee 20 feet away. But in preparation I clean my bottles and the droppers.

How are people cleaning the droppers? There is gotta be an easier way than my manual manipulation of the dropper. Items washed up at work with filtered water. Then at home Soapy distilled water in then out. Then distilled water. Then new clean distilled water and repeate distilled water until my ocd of cleanliness says "Ok good now" let's get those tiny specs of liquid out.

If you're talking about the glass tube of those droppers, I pop them out of the top, and give it a nice bath in water, with some vinegar in it. The vinegar should take care of most, due to the acid.

I do work in a lab, and the chemists always wash glasswear three times with DI water...

If I remember from High school water (H20) has some super cleaning ability's...something about it's ability to break down or something to remove chemical contaminates. I vaguely remember something about protons and neutrons.

Anyways...really, the glass can be removed from the dropper? I initially tugged on one alittle, it didn't seem feasible.

The chemists in the lab use just plain DI water to rinse off sulfur, acids and electroless solution, but always rinse 3 times...
It should pop off. Try twisting and pulling...

This isn't a toxic substance were working with here, do whatever you feel works. There's no secret specific way to clean ejuice out of the droppers.
