Feeling the column another 1/2 an hour takes place then another 1/2 an hour until the first drip then it's on. Fill the 200ml fores glass then back into refux for 1/2 an hour then a tweak on the needle valve gets rid of the heads. Put it back into reflux for a tad longer then adjust the needle valve to give a pic stream output which should stay for the run.
Being present is paramount as things can change very quickly and one must be aware of the running still.
This is the best advise I can give but take it with a drop of water

All bubblers are different and to understand them well you need to absorb as much info on them as possible. When I first looked into building one I spent weeks reading and researching. By the time I was ready to build I felt I had a real good understanding of them and was quite comfortable when it came time to run it.

I've run 5plates and 690mm packed and doing a stripping run and unimpressed with the result...
Stripping runs are best done in a pot still. You'll have difficulty with a bubbler unless you remove all plates, packing and the reflux condenser.
