I wouldn't think pressurized air could get into the external waterer bottle due to the fact that the hose would be under the water level in the main chamber?
Maybe since the waterer bottle doesn't have any way for pressure to escape, it acts in concert under the pressure of the main tank.

Milk!
Thank you for helping me realize what I have been craving:
a chocolate malted protein smoothie with a raw egg!
Yum!

Could you post a photo a little further away from the machine?

I drilled a 3/8" hole in the top of the Resmed Aircurve tank with a step drill bit to facilitate the rubber plug. I use a small funnel to add water.

Thanks. I couldn't really see what was going on. Very nice solution!
