I know a new one is only a few dollars. This one works now. Anyone who sees the flaw, let me know. A simple racking cane. I lost the little fitting that goes on the inlet end. Rather than put a lot of time into it, I lit up the old bernz-o-matic and closed the end. Then I got out a little saw and cut a hole in one side of the pipe about 3/4" (or so) from the bottom. It works like a charm. It seems to clean fine. What have I missed? Ed ps: about an hour after I "fixed" it, my wife found the little end cap. (grin)

Of course she found the cap 'after' you fixed it. Would you expect anything else? Tom

The only issue I'd be careful of is making sure it gets cleaned/sanitized well. I'd imagine that the inside of the sealed end would be a good place for residue to get stuck. John.
