I find wicking very easy.Doggy test in progress... so far apart from the slight painful wicking I'm impressed with the flavour and it certainly has a little more air than the exocet!

Top cap on and wick through the holes and cut.
There is a video on YouTube but the guy uses very little cotton!
Also I don't wick tightly anymore and it seems to do the trick.
I think it was @Silver who said he wicks with cotton that is thinner on one end and gets thicker. Put thin end in and pull till desired level of resistance is met.
