Try copper or stainless kitchen scrubbers, available at most hardware /
household stores. Ordinary steel wool might cause problems.
Good luck

Virtually any compatible material can be used as column packing. Broken up
ceramic coffee mugs, glass, marbles, short sections of small diameter pipe
(this is very similar to raschig rings), pieces of metal, like I said damn near
anything. Raschig rings are simply optimal packing as they are

Hi Ben
I got my raschig rings from my local cleaning store in the form of scouring
pads i don't think wire wool would have the surface area required for
condencing on.
good luck.
