Great build Mulla,

For your pot still mode had you considered NOT unpacking your reflux column but rather have a spare short section you can change out the reflux column for when you want to switch to pot mode?
You will be doing lots of stripping runs and changing out packing all the time might be a pain in the arse.

No such thing as reading too much! Just keep in mind that this forum is only 3 years old, so the threads from just a couple of pages in can be relatively old haha

Not required if your condenser can handle the input :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Edit: and as long as it's not flooding the column
