Nah actually I'm trying to find a faster drying method, I'm impatient & I was thinking someone would have a different method.
You could grasp it tightly between your fingers and do some strong wrist flicks like it's done with a thermometer, but that could be risky e.g., broken glass. Or blow through it real hard to clear most of the droplets out. Canned air might also work.

canned air leaves a residue like others have mentioned because of the bitterant so just use a paper towel lol. It takes like 3 minutes from dirty stem to clean and dry.

I don't think anything could be faster or better than snaking a dry cloth through it.
^This.

Also, if you want, you could use ISO for the last rinse instead of water, since iso evaporates pretty quickly at room temp compared to water. I'd still run the dry cloth through it, and let the rest evaporate.

Whatever you do, make sure there are no droplets of any liquid in the stem when you attach it to your nano heater.

Canned air might also work.
Canned air usually has a bitterant added in so people don't "huff" it to get high. It tastes HORRIBLE. Not sure if it would leave any of that on the glass. Sprayed some on my finger and touched my mouth by accident, and it was disgusting.

Of course get the canned air without the bitterents.

I hate using paper towels or any kind of tissue because they leave residue on the glass & I don't want to inhale that in. Yesterday I got so vaked I put it in the freezer for it to fast dry for a few minutes lol :rofl: But on another note I like how easy the nano is to maintain, no fuss at all.

Have you guys ever heard of BPA? Supposedly its in almost all paper products including papertowels napkins and toilet paper. It's linked with a whole bunch of problems such as cancer and diabetes. I just found out about it recently but wanted to hear your opinions? In my opinion I really enjoy how stiff it makes paper products but looking at the side effects just makes me uneasy.

This relates to the nano only because of the last post by KidFated :shrug:

@$un yesterday I dried my grinder in the oven within 10 minutes around 150F.

I still think pushing a piece of a towel or cloth down through the stem using a long stick or skewer, and then sitting it upright for the water to evaporate out is the best method. You can add in a blow drier, but it would probably save you less time than plugging it in and putting it away.

I like to look down my stem & watch all those vapor come up, it gives me a rush. Yesterday when I was bored,snowed in on a Sunday took some pics & found some really cool patterns & faces with vapor clouds. I think this is really cool & it fascinates me, thought I would share it with y'all.

If you tilt your head this looks like a monster face

This is what I do. I always have the chopstick around to adjust the screen anyway.

I have put hard to dry glass pieces in a warm oven for a few and that does the trick.
That's funny I can see me tearing apart my house looking for my Nano stem.Because I forgot that I put it in the oven to dry. Lol

Actually I heat up my stem and slide screen down I'll collect all that nectar slide it back in upside down crank up my Nano to 10 enjoy the fruits of my labor. then a quick ISO swype and I'm done.

Then a quick torch of the screen.
