        <content>I can't get the coupler out of a canvas pastry bag.  I already posted this here, it showed up and now it's gone. My apologies if theoriginal post comes back.  I have to get this thing cleaned tonight because it will be disgusting if I don't.
 
thanks</content>

      <content>maybe try turning it inside out?  then you can press it out rather than trying to pull.  </content>

      <content>One trick for the future would be to use a freezer-style ziploc bag next time instead of your pastry bag.
 
Just place your nozzle/attachments in the bottom corner of the bag... it'll make clean up lots easier!
 
(Picked up from a pastry chef friend of mine.  It was a "why didn't I think of that" kind of moment!)
