    Have you done the WD-40 yet?


    ...but not on the cake. It clashes with the frosting.

    Ain't that depending on what you heat or cool? If you cool the pot it will only shrink harder around the stopper i would think.

    The pot needs to grow. The stopper needs to shrink (or at least not grow). To create a slight difference, space.
    You can't put the stopper in the freezer without the pot.
    You do can heat the pot without the stopper.

    Therefore I would try to put the pot up to the stopper in warm water (not hot! Cracks), end leave the stopper above that warm water (to not heat up, or less).

    Good luck! Nice decanter.
