I've blocked my Dip Tube with Kitchen Roll!

[nhenson22]

As the title suggests, I have very cleverly managed to block one of my corny keg dip tubes with a bit of kitchen roll!
Had a stubborn bit of gunk that I thought pushing a bit of wet kitchen roll through would solved, it did not and is now very stuck.
Looking for ideas on how to get out.

Things I have tried -

High pressure setting on garden hose
Hooking liquid post up to CO2 and cranking pressure up
Pushing with my dip tube brush (flexible so was never going to work)
Have tried letting it dry out also to no avail.

Please help!!
Thank you

Sounds like a nightmare (something I’d probably end up doing ). Short of finding something to push through could you let it dry and then burn it out?

You can buy dip tubes for around 10-15 quid, and you could sacrifice that one for keg fermentation i.e. chop the end off?

Soak it in water and then try and wang the soggy tissue out?

Can you get the tube off so you can get at both ends? Might be possible to push it through with a straightened out coat hanger, hammer an end flat and maybe put a twist on it and it should work as a primitive drill bit. If none of that works maybe heat it up with a gas flame and burn the bugger out but it wil be a pain to get clean afterwards.

Try a vacuum cleaner and block/release the top of the dip tube which should create enough suction to suck it out.

Thanks for all the replies, I've just actually managed to get it out!!!!
Suddenly remembered I had some fishing wire rods for doing wiring behind walls, that's done the trick in under 30 seconds!
