    If you can, place it on a relatively flat surface and move it in a circle for a minute or two. Not sure of how it works, but I’ve opened cans with nary a hiss using this method. I’ve even managed to do it with the can just on my thigh and trying to keep it as perpendicular as possible.

      This helps dissolve the carbonation so there’s less gas pressure in the can. Another tactic is to chill the can.

      That said, the loudest part is the seal or whatever getting cracked open
