For the "white" cataract, I think the water method is safest but it can take weeks. I've done this a few times; it doesn't work well with the "green" type.

I've done a number with heat, best with a decent heat gun. I actually did one on a dud (aired tube) using a propane torch and it seemed to work just as well though I'd be cautious doing it with a "live" tube. I also tried infrared bulbs on a dud one time and it worked well but the crt cracked underneath-too hot!
