Peltier modules operate by creating a temperature differential, which means if we're using them to heat our water the other side will get cold. Really cold. When we warm it using a heatsink and fan we're going to get condensation.
Due to this consideration the heatsinks used are straight-finned aluminum, with a drip tray integrated underneath. A small tube then runs to a bottle so condensation can be safely removed. A simple liquid sensor at the top of the bottle will power down the SuperVide in case of overflow.
