Sometimes it's the strainer part that's stuck on the base; other times it's the smaller lid that becomes stuck on.
Anyone?

Are they stuck after use? In a prolonged period between uses? Or when you're actually using it?
I'm assuming they're cleaned, haha . . . if between uses, the issue is probably that residue is building up after you clean it and put it away (put together), so either put it away apart or wipe it down after pulling from the dishwasher.
If it's during use, the issue is probably the temperature change - you can try chilling the shaker prior to use, which should help, or adding some lime juice/salt water/dish water to the connecting areas (we used to do this when I bartended - it was insanely gross after a while, but worked).
