The point is the design is good for food (and medicine) because only the internals have to be cleaned rather than pump internals. -- [[user:ciaran.mooney|Ciarán]] | ** They can be very expensive, but they are extremely controllable and have been calibrated etc. We could probably knock together something much cruder that'll be good enough.
