Almost forgot...

1 very thinly stretched out scrubber up the centre so if offer minimal resisitance like blow through it should offer barely detectable resistance to breath/flow and your done. 2 scrubbers might be pushing it.

Sweet as. Have a rum wash going through it at the minute (as a pot still) was pulling off 68% to start with. 2hrs 20 mins in its down to 45% and have stripped bout 2.5 - 3 Ltrs off so far off 20 Ltrs of wash. All happy so far. Will be interesting with the coil mod. Looking forward to it.
