Wire defuse puzzle

A bubbling copper still wired to go up in green smoke.
The runaway alchemist left her still running, and rigged it to blow if anyone touches the valves. Three coloured wires feed the firebox, and her working notes are scratched into the copper beside them.
The flask rattles on its stand. Three wires run from the firebox to a clay fuse pot.
