3. After the initial crush, pull the handles together lightly while revolving the cups. The combined
motion will reduce the pill to a consistency similar to that of granulated sugar.
Info: Handle pressure required will vary depending on the hardness of the pill. Soft tablets
will require less pressure than hard tablets. Too much pressure will re-compact the pill to
water form.
