And how do you know that (the small tube is at the bottom)?
The tube clearly hits something, but it doesn't necessary mean the bottom (lowest point) of the pan.
I use exclusively the small tube, and everytime, I throw in an extra quart of new oi to flush out any left overs. Invariably, the oil that comes out is still dark (although not as dark as in the begining of the process).
