Hide MFG on Product page

I was able to edit catalog\view\theme\default\template\product\product.tpl in 2.x and hide the "Brand" under the item title. How do I do this in catalog\view\theme\default\template\product\product.twig

I tried to remove lines 125-128
{% if manufacturer %}
<li>{{ text_manufacturer }} <a href="{{ manufacturers }}">{{ manufacturer }}</a></li>
{% endif %}
<li>{{ text_model }} {{ model }}</li>

But it still appears

It is not recommended to edit files directly .. however

Have you refreshed your cache?
Dashboard => top right => cog
Extensions => Modifications => top right => refresh

Have you refreshed your browser?
Is your theme caching ? (you are suggesting you are using default theme and have knowledge of OC .. but here you can never be sure)
Are you editing the corrected file (i.e. you have theme and you are editing the default theme)?
Do you have caching on your server?
