I have the same 6" plate in mine but can't see it run :crying-blue: That 6" glass module looks magic :music-deathmetal:

Would love to see it running :whistle:

What's in the thumper/what's it do? I'd love a photo up the skirt so I could see what was going on.

It's all just so precise! My beloved bubbler is very organic in comparison. This is surgical blades compared to kitchen knives.

So slick.


Hi Mac,
I assume there is no reflux condensor on the top. A Harry cross flow type on top for reflux and a valve on the side arm would make a great VM still.

What do you reckon?

Hi Hari,

There is a reflux condenser just below the take off, all our bubblers are essentially CM ;-)
